The eTA is not required for land or sea entry from the US.
Passport must be valid for the duration of the intended stay (Canada does not enforce a 6-month validity rule). At the border, CBSA officers may ask about the purpose of your visit, length of stay, accommodation, and ties to Ireland. Have a return ticket accessible.
