It appears that not only does the Federal Government not work weekends, but their websites don't either! Have been trying all morning to get into Passport Canada with no luck at all. Grr. >:(

Best time to the passport would next Monday on family day, since the Feds still work it
When I went about 2 years ago there was no one in Whitby office and they had a full staff working

^ yes the only holiday they don't get (yet) because it wasn't negotiated into their contract.

I betcha it will be in their next contract.   :)

Scarborough office was pretty quick if you have filled out your forms properly and all the properly documentations.
