I agree with you too, that why I said that without passport it will not workout to get to US or Canada if the person is currently away from here.

I think that the employees at the airport know the list of visa waived countries and the let the people in if the passport is real.
In my case I am allowed to stay in Canada for 6 months per visit so that is enough for them to board on the plane.
1. Except that is probably not going to work when the Electronic Travel Authorization comes into effect. As most visa exempt citizens intending to visit Canada will be required to get an ETA prior to flying, the system would probably show that the person applying for the ETA is a PR and doesn't require one, so would refuse the ETA. Just my opinion how it will work.

For me it will be also very interesting how it will work. Most probably like you're thinking there will be a difference between those who have already PR.
Back in February I asked the border agent can I use my passport only to get in and he answered that I don't have to conceal my immigration status in Canada . This information is current before the actual enforcement of eTA so I also think that there will be a difference between only visitors and lets say visitors with PR.

If you are a PR you're not supposed to use the ETA system.
