By 2008- everyone entering the US will need a passport
Well...... Not Everyone
There are many of us that have a FAST EXPRES Card. I use this card everyday(Mon to Fri) when crossing into the US.
It's a program implemented by both Canada and US that gives specific priviledges to the driver and load. Special customs boothes, special bridge lane and traffic priviledges on the highway/roadway to the bridges.Quick release at customs,entering both USA and Canada.
The USA knows as much about me as my own country does.Taxes,criminal events (None) and anything that could be legally stated as PERSONAL INFO.
It doesn't bother me in the least.Nothing to hide, nothing disclosed.
I will never need a passport to cross borders.
