I'm not sure, but everybody entering the US is required to present a

passports, it's more that they can't go home without.
It's good that this is being discussed now. It would be a shame to have
someone not be able to attend because they didn't have adequate
documents. There *are* immigration sites for both the U.S. and Canada
that can provide up to date information regarding required documents. I
was suggest using those sites rather than speculate about what might be
required based on responses in this thread. That said, I probably
should check my passport to see when it expires. In addition to the
likely trip to Montpellier, there is a fairly high chance that'll be
going to Tanzania on business as well.
I have taken the 1000 Island Bridge (incredibly scenic for those that
haven't done it) and have also taken the Wolf Island Ferries. I've
probably traveled to/from Canada 6-7 times and got more scrutiny at the
Wolf Island crossing than any other spot.
Ride sharing is a good idea. With enough people coming from some areas
renting a van might even be a viable option.
