Default I lost my birth certificate, and am traveling to Canada soon. What else will provide proof of citizenship?

I have my Drivers License, an old military ID, Social Security Card, Phone Bill etc.

Is it possible to enter Canada and Re-Enter the US with other documentation besides birth certificate? Also, I do have a photo copy of my birth certificate.
I am supposed to leave on thursday for CA, stay over the weekend, and then come back to the US the following sunday. I dont have a passport, and I was born abroad on a US army base...Thats most of my problem...As I said I have DL, photocopy of birth certificate, SS card, old military ID, car insurence policy, phone bill etc.

Thanks!

you don't need driver's license, it doesn't show proof of citizenship. you could use the photo copy because it has signatures on it, but you could go to the hospital where you were born and ask for another copy.

When entering Canada from the United States, U.S. citizens must show either a U.S. passport or other proof of U.S. citizenship - such as an original or certified birth certificate together with photo identification. U.S. citizens entering Canada from a third country must have a valid passport. A visa is not required for U.S. citizens for a stay up to 180 days

A driver's license or Social Security card is not valid proof of citizenship.

The following pieces of identification will serve as satisfactory proof of American citizenship to enter Canada.

Please note, however, that photocopies of ID must be notarized:
US passport

OR


Birth certificate,

OR


Certificate of citizenship or naturalization,

AND


Photo ID, such as current driver's license
