No, you need a passport now, but no visa is required. In the past you could get in with a drivers license but not any more.

Further to the above: If you're flying in, you need a passport, but if entering by land you can get by with a # Birth certificate, OR # Certificate of citizenship or naturalization, AND # Photo ID, such as current driver's license. This is because as of Dec 21, 2007, passport requirements have been once again delayed meaning that US citizens arriving in Canada by land or water do not need a passport until at least summer 2009. The US consular service says however:
"It is strongly recommended that all citizens of both Canada and the United States carry passports when crossing the U.S. / Canada border." For more: see http://www.consular.canada.usembassy.gov/passport_requirement.asp

Can a Colombian citizen; visiting in the United States on a tourism visa, and crossing to Canada to visit Niagara Falls for one day, enter the border for one single day, with the colombian passport?.
I hear that my Colombian family can get a pass for one day at the Canadian border. Is this true?
Please answer.
Thank you very much.
