July 25 - DRIVEN 2009 Winnipeg Convention Centre
-
Jason no worries. I think its good that we're both trying to cover all bases to ensure that everyone is able to attend both events.
Entry into Canada by a US Resident:
http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_1082.htmlENTRY/EXIT REQUIREMENTS: Entry into Canada is solely determined by Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) officials in accordance with Canadian law . Canadian law requires that all persons entering Canada carry both proof of citizenship and proof of identity. A valid U.S. passport, passport card or NEXUS card (see below) satisfies these requirements for U.S. citizens. If U.S. citizen travelers to Canada do not have a passport, passport card or approved alternate document such as a NEXUS card, they must show a government-issued photo ID (e.g. Driver’s License) and proof of U.S. citizenship such as a U.S. birth certificate, naturalization certificate, or expired U.S. passport. Children under sixteen need only present proof of U.S. citizenship.
US Resident return to the US from Canada by land after June 1, 2009:
http://travel.state.gov/travel/cbpmc/cbpmc_2223.html
On June 1, 2009, the U.S. government will implement the full requirements of the land and sea phase of WHTI. The proposed rules require most U.S. citizens entering the United States at sea or land ports of entry to have a passport, passport card, or <u>other travel document approved by the Department of Homeland Security</u>.
What is this other? Well:
US and Canadian Citizens Single Document Option:
One of the following documents should be presented to prove both identity and citizenship.
Acceptable Documents as of January 31, 2008
• U.S. or Canadian Passport
• U.S. Passport Card (Available Spring 2008)*
• Trusted Traveler Cards (NEXUS, SENTRI, or FAST)*
• State or Provincial Issued Enhanced Driver’s License (when available*– this secure driver’s license will denote identity and citizenship.)*
• Enhanced Tribal Cards (when available)*
• U.S. Military Identification with Military Travel Orders
• U.S. Merchant Mariner Document
• Native American Tribal Photo Identification Card
• Form I-872 American Indian Card
• Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) Card- Frequent Land Border Crossers — To expedite processing into the United States, U.S. Customs and Border Protection recommends using one of the above asterisked
**
US and Canadian Citizen Two Document Option**All U.S. and Canadian citizens who do not have one of the documents from the list above must present BOTH an identification and citizenship document from each of the columns below.
Column 1
Identification Documents*
• Driver’s license or identification card issued by a federal, state, provincial, county, territory, or municipal authority
• U.S. or Canadian military identification card- All identification documents must have a photo, name, and date of birth.
Column 2
Citizenship Documents
• U.S. or Canadian birth certificate issued by a federal, state, provincial, county, territory, or municipal authority
• U.S. Consular report of birth abroad
• U.S. Certificate of Naturalization
• U.S. Certificate of Citizenship
• U.S. Citizen Identification Card
• Canadian Citizenship Card
• Canadian certificate of citizenship without photoSo looks like if you're returning a Driver's license and birth certificate will do the trick. Now what about this enhanced driver's license? Well we in Manitoba are starting to implement them as well as other provinces. I did a quick search and found the following document which outlines what Canadian provinces and US states have them. It turns out that North Dakota does not have them and Manitoba does. So, with that in mind you can get back into the states with your ND Drivers' license and 1 item from column 2 above.

now i'm relly confused...Basically, as of June 1st, you ARE required to have a passport or NEXUS card to get back IN to the US. This goes for Canadian residents as well.
"Visitors from any country other than the U.S. need a passport to enter Canada. On the other hand, because of a friendly border crossing agreement between Canada and the United States, Canada Border Services does not require U.S. citizens to present a passport to enter Canada. This friendly border crossing agreement used to be mutual; [B]however, now the WHTI(June 1, 2009) requires that U.S. citizens have a passport to return home.[/B]"

to avoid confusion, because every thread turns into a passport debate, we all drive our cars to the border, and just have the US cars park along the US border, and the Canucks park on their side. there for no confusion, nobody has to worry about passports, problem solved

A few new clubs have opened up and you know that our clubs are always rammed with cheap booze and fun times!
Hotel information to follow and a guarantee of hot cars and new features!

Afterparty will be at Republic. Trust me you're gonna love the music in this place that night. DJ Dow Jones and Playboy DJ Tamara Sky (google her!) All my homies from Fargostreets will get passes to bypass the massive lineups outside with full access to the VIP area. Trust me, there will be massive lineups that night. Y'know how us Canadians like to work and party hard! This is by far the hottest club in the city right now and you guys will absolutely love it.
Pre-party will probably just be a lounging night. If you guys are really looking for one, I'll set something up.
-
If you're staying at the Delta it's just about a $4 cab ride or a 8 minute walk or a 20 minute stumble or a 30 hands and knees crawl.
