How can I get my passport application returned? When I submitted my passport renewal application back in May to Passport Canada, I didn't have travel plans. Now I am scheduled to travel on July 28 (3 weeks from the time this question was asked), but the Passport Canada web site says that they are getting a record number of applications, and it could take up to 15 weeks to process my application. (!!) Since my passport doesn't expire until October anyways, I would like to get my application back again and reapply when I have come back from my trip. A CBC news article recently mentioned there is a 1-800 to get it returned, but for some odd reason they didn't give the number. Does anyone know the number, or know how I can get my passport back in order to travel on July 28?
