I find it quite ironic that the rush by Canadians to get passports, sparked by an overly security paranoid, post-911 United States requirement for all Canadians visiting the country to carry passports, has led to concerns about the security of passport issuing procedures?
Security might have been compromised as Canada's passport office scrambled to meet an unprecedented demand for travel documents, an internal review says.Somehow, alas, I'm doubting Homeland Security will appreciate the irony. Recommend this Post on Progressive Bloggers
An audit of Passport Canada's security bureau found some employees felt time constraints and inadequate training may have "contributed significantly" to documents being rushed out the door.
