Delays have already been there dummies
Controlling people's movements is just part of the agenda.
The word government and efficiency dont go together.
So it’s another occupation we’re it’s financially beneficial for them to slow down and hit you with another fee. Kind of like going private to get an operation done. Or legal stuff.
They cannot get workers in fast enough to replace people who hit 65. The bulge of baby boomers need replacing that was predictable.
Is there a refund for individuals who aren't allowed to board planes because they're not vaccinated?
They say "delays are being caused by increased demand", but knowing how they work, I can also say delays are being caused by incompetent staff.
Passports for most countries are manufactured in the same factories by the same few companies. Increased demand in one country wouldn't be felt overall.
They just want to limit your freedom
I mailed my application at the end of February and have not heard a word yet. I inquired on the website but they didn't get back to me. I was asked not to send multiple questions. However, my payment was processed in late March. That's how I knew they reviewed my application. I am completing my sixth week of waiting. That's 30 business days. I have not booked a trip, but I regret it because all these people who have bought tickets are cutting in line in front of me. Hello, Passport Canada, I want to travel! That's why I applied for the passport.
The Trudeau Regime's new motto…Striving for Mediocracy. I doubt anyone is as slow as our health care system though.
Why not hire some people?
So, Mr turdoo…Why was it you government ALLOWED 410,000 MIGRANTS/IMMIGRANTS into Canada during the 2 year lock down…
WHY IS THIS GOVERNMENT STREAMING ILLEGAL ALIENS IN TO CANADA
what government are you talking about ????
we here in canada have a MAFIA not a government
We now live in a country where our movement is being impeded by the government violating our rights and freedoms! Canadian's want out of this country!
Typical Government buck passing !
Unnecessary Travel should be banned. It is a major carbon contributor and a waste of fuel as well as number one global disease spreader
I guess we need more taxes.
All four name of offshore company need to be removed. Shazia, Ayaz, rehan and Shahnaz
They should expect delay in every government steps they thinking you take because of there favourite excuse it’s due to covid
This is the incompetent govt. minister and the Unionized govt. servants,the Democratic way of doing business Lazy and Irresponsible.
There denying Canadians the freedom to easily leave the country
It’s probably because people want to leave this dictatorship country…
Jus one more attempt from the Trudeau government meant to discourage us from travelling.
It isn't just passports taking a long time…getting an appointment to register my mom's death has taken months. HIRE SOME BLOODY STAFF.
My cousin worked at the passport office and she was put on administrative leave for not getting a second dose of that crap. Do you think this has anything to do with the delays?
Useless privileged workers at service Canada
Soon as they said “lockdown” I renewed my passport and left. I don’t partake in communism
My mail application:
26 Feb mailed the application
02 Mar mail received
24 Mar credit card payment processed
11 Apr application approved
14 Apr passport ready to be mailed
It used to take two weeks if you applied in person like these people. Now that it's done in Quebec, it takes months. It's never their fault though. More people are travelling after vaccinations? Only a rocket scientist could see this coming.
They're still refusing to staff offices fully. Still trying to hide gov behind covid, even though most people have had 2 shots and a booster.
I went into the Edmonton office and there were three clerks behind the plexiglass. I had to wait 4 hours in a line to get an appointment, and then 4 hours to submit my application
Service Canada Suck's ….. what is it that takes so long to RENEW a passport. answer : Poor Services Canada you suck
Lots of people want out of Canada, for good reason!!!
This is hideous. The government is holding us hostage because they couldn't be bothered to function over the pandemic. I can't wait to leave this country permanently.

I have a cruise booked in 10 days. My guest sent in his passport application 2 months ago and he still doesn’t have his passport. Getting ridiculous as no passport means money down the drain.
I applied in january and it came back denied because passport was expired few months. they are lying to Canadians and services Canada is non existent.
Most people could/should have renewed their passport in 2020/2021. Just because you are not traveling is no excuse for not having a valid passport.
Lucky I did mind before covid Hit got ten years should
be no excuses short of staff 2 years Locked down what a messed
