Travel Documents for Entering the United States Attention Canadian citizens traveling to the United States by land or water. Currently, Canadian citizens, including children, DO NOT require a passport to enter the United States by land or water. Canadian citizens should, however, carry documents that demonstrate their identity and citizenship. The following documents are some accepted forms of identification: a birth certificate; and a driver’s licence. Oral declarations of identity and citizenship may be accepted, but it is recommended that travellers carry identification. A valid Canadian passport is always an acceptable travel document to enter the United States by land or water. Canadian citizens flying to or through the U.S. must present a valid Canadian passport.
As of January 31, 2008, the United States will require all travellers to present documents to enter the U.S. More info - Canada Border Services Agency
Canadian Passport Information The Government of Canada continues to recommend that travellers carry a valid Canadian passport for all visits abroad, including the United States.
