What is the passport card?  If I have a passport, do I need the "card" too? I have to renew my RABCP, and plan to do that, but do I also need this "card"?   :-?

A passport card in a restricted substitute for a passport.  By restricted, I' mean that the "card" is only valid for bordering countries (Canada/Mexico) and islands in the Caribbean (including Bermuda).  So, a passport trumps a passport card. ;)  I sent a photocopy of my passport with my application a couple of weeks back ... haven't received the RABC yet, but it hasn't been that long.
