   So, when asked what you were doing in Canada did you actually reply "to   
   attend the SARSfest concert -- for $25 plus TicketMaster fee"?   
      
   Casual is fine in teh casinos in Canada (at least the ones in the Niagara   
   Falls, Ontario), also there is a casino in Niagara Falls, NY.   
      
   BTW, it is the United States that requires the Passport for reentry via   
   flight, not Canada.
