I am currently in San Diego and somehow managed to lose my passport while travelling down here. I know that I had it to get on a flight in YYZ, but did not have it at Ohare. I went to the red Carpet Club where I asked them to go search the plane, which they did but couldnt find it. I continued on to San Diego but I am now without a passport and scheduled to return to Canada SAN->SFO->YYZ-YSJ on Friday's redeye.

I have phoned both the LA and SFO Canadian Consulate offices and have gotten no response from either. Any idea if I will be able to fly back to Canada without a passport? Should I fly close to the border and attempt to drive across?

Any suggestions would be hugely appreciated.
