December 31, 2007 - Passport required for all land border crossings, as well as air and sea travel.
FWIW I live near the WA/BC (US/CDN) border and cross it often (at least twice a month) for both work and social activities, and have been using an expired US passport for the past two years with no issues. The Canadians never even ask for it. The US border folks occasionally hassle me a tiny bit, but never about the expired passport (go figure). The ONLY time the expired passport was an issue was on a flight, with my entire family from Seattle to Denver(!) where the TSA boarding pass & ID checker in airport security nearly didn't let me through. Again, go figure. Yes, I need to renew, but as my world-travelling days for work are behind me I haven't been motivated to do so. --chuck
