A: Hi. I live on the Ontario-Michigan border and cross all the time. You didn't give your age, but if you're 16 or under you just need your birth certificate. That will suffice. Over sixteen requires your birth certificate and one piece of government-issued photo ID (a driver's licence - which you say you don't have - military service card, etc.) Sorry to say, but I don't think anything above qualifies as proper documentation. I should point out, as well, that if you are a minor you will need as well an authorization letter from your parent(s) giving you permission to cross the border.
