Esme Bailey and Canada Border Services Agency

Canada Border Services Agency: Under the Canada-U.S. perimeter security pact, the federal government committed to begin collecting records as of last June 30 on people leaving Canada on international flights, according to 660 News. Canada Border Services Agency spokeswoman Esme Bailey would not reveal a new deadline for the project, saying only that information on proposed changes would be provided in due course and The Conservative government is three months late on delivering a tracking system it continues to tout as a means of stopping homegrown terrorists from joining overseas conflicts. However, the Tories missed that deadline because legislative and regulatory changes are needed before the plan can take effect. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
