Auditor General's Report
In April 2005, the Auditor General of Canada Sheila Fraser gave a scathing report on Passport Canada, claiming that employees of the agency lack proper security clearance. Prior to the Auditor General's report, Passport Canada had signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Corrections Canada to obtain a full list of inmates' names, as they are ineligible for a passport.
Follow-up reports were issued in 2007 - which noted continuing control issues - and 2009 - where satisfactory progress was observed, especially in light of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative introduced by the United States.
