If you're going to piss and moan about people being incorrect, you may
as well manage to be correct yourself.

Canadians do *not* need a passport to cross into the US, an Enhanced
Drivers License issued in Canada is sufficient to cross into the US by
land or sea.  

If a Canadian is flying then a passport OR Nexus Card is required, or if
traveling on official business then a z-card (Merchant Mariner Document)
is also sufficient.

Lastly, members acting as part of US Armed Forces never need a passport
to enter or leave the US, this can include non-US citizens in many
cases.
