Well, I've been back and forth between the US and Canada umpteen
times, and it's just NO big deal.  I have never been asked for
any documentation on my way in or out, ever.  And I didn't even
have too much trouble when I was pulled over for reckless driving..
in a stolen car...   (I swear, I didn't know it was stolen.)

Trivia for the day:  The US/Canadian border is the largest unguarded
in the world.
