Government: Canadian-American Citizenship and Canadian Passport

government: A new electronic system will scan passports at check in to verify that all passengers boarding flights have the appropriate documents to enter Canada, according to CTV. The government was set to start enforcing the new rules at the end of September, but held off until today because some travellers complained that they didnt get enough notice to get a Canadian passport. The federal government announced the rule earlier this year - it doesnt apply to those who have dual Canadian-American citizenship. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
