People had two years to get passports. I don’t understand what people didn’t do this last year. Human nature puzzles me.

Our dictator sucks at running a modern society

How about staff stop working from home. That might help.

Miss this CBC Trudeau says: 'We did not put any undue influence or pressure' in the 2020 Nova Scotia mass shooting investigation…but ANY political pressure UNDUE or not on Police by government , is ILLEGAL in a democracy..!!!! So Trudeau just BROKE the LAW a “little” again..?

Will the workers be called in to work in the Govt Office or are they handling the load at home on the patio? That is the Q

The sheer number of people that want to leave Canada, even if for a brief holiday, was obviously grossly underestimated by the bubble-dwelling ruling class. Also they lie about the number of non-injected citizens. Either way, build back better is destruction first.

People are living in poverty, can’t afford a house or rent or gas or even food and these people are complaining about going on vacation. We all know none one these travels are ESSENTIAL (meaning life or death)

Yeah and they'll be doing what?

Bet you these staff also gorge or free Covid money while closing the passport office.

Incompetent government, they had 2 years of non-essential travels to clear up any backlogs. Yet, here we are.

How long until some Liberal shows up and tries to defend this.

Liberals couldn’t organize a 2 car parade.

They have unacceptable views. What should be done with them? There is no place for them in Canada. The Fringe group.

How long till the “It’S aLL JuStIn’S FaUlT” Neanderthals show up?

JPTasker Dear liberal voters, that's how the government's trumpet see you, hordes.

JPTasker Hordes, eh? Gfy!

JPTasker Puff piece about liberal stooges , from another stooge on the liberal payroll ..I had high hopes for you at one time John Paul ..

JPTasker Everything libs touch turns to sht

JPTasker Nice! they call Canadian citizens hordes. CBC chooses their words carefully; this is no accident. People who want a service from their government that they pay for = the Tatars

Friend applied for a passport for child and had zero after 3 months. Called MP & got it a few days later. Minor error so put aside & no action by staff until MP office called. MP apologized for bad service by PPT. Don’t wait long, call your MP as they have direct line to PPT.
