Passport delays leave Canadians frustrated, running out of time for travel plans


Global News on Youtube shows that as travel restrictions fall away, the desire of Canadians to travel has taken off. From the beginning of April to the end of June, Service Canada received more than 808,000 applications for passports.
 
That surge in demand has led to a massive backlog, with many Canadians wondering if they'll have their documents in time for travel.
 
For one family applying for a passport for their one-year-old daughter, it wasn't until nine weeks after they started the process that they were finally able to get some answers.
 
Shallima Maharaj has the latest on what is being done to try and clear the backlog, still waiting to get their passports - weeks and sometimes months later.
