Can I add a question? Do most people travel with passports/drivers licenses only, or do you bring birth certificates for trips across the border as well?
I don't see the value a birth certificate would have. Your passport says you're Canadian.
Have never travelled with birth certificates.
Commonly used for entry to the US before the dramatic changes precipitated by 9/11. To get a passport you must have a "valid" birth cert. The birth cert's currently issued by vital statistics come with a directive that the cert should not be carried and their size and construction material surely don't accommodate carrying the document. They are 7" by 5,7/8" and made of materials similar to our currency. They are the same regardless of the province of birth with perhaps the exception of Quebec.
