Ottawa is simplifying the passport application process in an effort to ease delays for the travel document, Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay announced Friday.Read the whole article here.
MacKay announced that it will no longer be necessary to have a guarantor or to provide proof of citizenship when renewing a passport.
For first-time applicants, the process will be simplified so that most citizens can act as guarantors.
Currently, only certain professionals, such as engineers and doctors, can do so.
