Re: [IRCA] passport if going to Canada



For question 1, you'll find airports more picky than land crossings.  Not sure how you're traveling.
 
Also, at some major Canadian airports, you actually clear US Immigration in Canada at the airport, with American officers, and then land in the US as a domestic flight.  It all depends on your ports of entry and exit how it will work for you.
 
 
For question 2, I might be the only Atlantic Canadian on-list.
 
I would say the must-see places in NS are:
 
1.    Peggy's Cove (scenery)
2.    Halifax Harbor and Citadel (history)
3.    Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, Halifax (Titanic exhibit)
4.    Baddeck, home of the Alexander Graham Bell Museum
5.    Marconi National Historic Site, Table Head, Glace Bay (Cape Breton) - a must for an IRCAer, eh?
6.    Celtic Colors music festival in Canso, in October (major culture there)
 
If you're driving, Tim, you'll pass through New Brunswick, and I can REALLY help you there, hi hi.  We've got lots of neat stuff, too.

Timely post. My wife and I are considering traveling to Nova Scotia in October. From your post and what I've read, it sounds as if you still can get through without a passport because they won't start enforcing the law until January.
 
So two questions: Have others found that to be the case? And if we do go to Nova Scotia, what are some shouldn't-miss sites?
