no, you do not yet require your passport to cross, legislation was delayed.

Default Just looked it up, they are illegal in Quebec now.

Automobile Radar Detectors

" Three provinces do not prohibit radar detectors. They are British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan. All the rest (including the territories) do prohibit radar detectors. The police will confiscate radar detectors, whether in use or not, and may impose fines up to $1000. "

Default Helpful information for Americans entering Canada enclosed, complete with link....

" The travel initiative requirements will be rolled out in phases. The proposed implementation timeline is as follows:

December 31, 2006 - Passport required for all air and sea travel to or from Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean, and Bermuda.
December 31, 2007 - Passport required for all land border crossings, as well as air and sea travel.
Current Requirements for Entry Into Canada

Visas are not required for U.S. citizens entering Canada from the U.S. You will, however, need:

Proof of your U.S. citizenship such as your U.S. passport (For information on obtaining a U.S. passport, check with one of the regional passport agencies located throughout the U.S.) or certified copy of your birth certificate issued by the city, county or state in the U.S. where you were born. If you are a naturalized U.S. citizen and do not have a passport, you should travel with your naturalization certificate. A driver's license, voter's registration card or Social Security card is NOT valid proof of citizenship.
Photo identification, such as a current, valid driver's license.
All U.S. citizens entering Canada from a third country must have a valid passport. "

I travel from Niagara Falls Ontario to US about twice every three weeks.... less in summer (tourists and all packing the borders)<ul><li><a href="http://travel.state.gov/travel/tips/regional/regional_1170.html">clickity here</a></li></ul>
