I find it distressing that the driver's license is the standard of full citizenship.

It isn't, when crossing the border to Canada.

That is to say: a driver's license alone is not sufficient proof of American citizenship to the RCMP. They ask for your birth certificate as well, if you don't have a passport.

On the other hand, you may have a point: Crossing back into the States after a prolonged stay in Canada is as simple as showing your D.L.

        No. But I know for a fact that the state ID requirements are so all over the map that the Feds won't accept them. - Mary Anne - 10/23/2004 11:23:54 AM
