Answer 5

Yes. Plus another form of ID.

Answer 6

Passports for LAND travel between Canada and the uUS. will not be needed until June 2009.  See sight below to read the law for yourself.  Right now, you need a birth certificate and a photo I.D. When you do have a passport, you do not need additional I.D. with it, a passport alone is sufficient.
