Birth Cert, Citizenship card, Care card.

If you don't have a driver's license, I suggest you get yourself a BC ID. Don't be cheap. It's a few bucks and it'll save you a tonne of hassle.

I would expect you will need at least one form of PHOTO ID. Something with your picture on it. Like bcrdukes said, a BC ID card would work. If you've got a recently expired passport, that should be fine too.

Go get the BC ID card...it will make your life so much easier having a government approved piece of ID.

how long would it take to get a BC ID card?

If it's like a driver's license, they'll give you a temporary one and you'll get a real one in the mail within 7-10 business days.

To fly, you need at least one piece of government issued photo ID showing your name, date of birth and gender.

If a valid government issued photo ID is not available, then two pieces of valid government issued non-photo ID will be required one of which must show their name, date of birth and gender.

Accepted valid government issued photo ID and non-photo ID are:

Passport
Citizenship card
Permanent resident card
Driver's licence
Health card
Provincial/Territorial Government Identification Cards (GIC)
Birth certificate
Record of Landing Form/Confirmation of Permanent Residence (IMM 5292)
Immigration documents issued to foreign nationals (work permit, study permit, visitor record, temporary resident permit, refugee approved status)
Canadian military ID
Federal police ID
Federal, provincial, and municipal government employee ID
Social insurance number (SIN) card
Old age security (OAS) identification card

That's if you're 18 or over.

But if you're traveling by car, then you don't need any of this and I'm pretty sure it's the same if you're traveling by bus, train, and boat.

yes, like bcrdukes sed, get a BC ID card, u can get them at icbc i believe and it takes around the same amount as time as getting drivers license, so around 2-3 weeks.

Get a BCID. It's really the only way to go if you don't have a license or a passport. I would get a passport though...more expensive but it's the gold standard for traveling now. Soon you won't be able to even drive across the boarder without one.
