Alright, Government of Canada. We get it: You really, really want Santa to be Canadian.
In a publicity event surely dreamed up by an excitable pre-teen, the Department of Citizenship and Immigration has issued a Canadian passport to Santa and Mrs. Claus.
The pair was the 2,999,999th and 3,000,000th people to receive an ePassport – an electronic chip-encoded passport upgrade introduced last year.
"Santa and Mrs. Claus live in North Pole, Canada, with their many helpers. Like so many Canadian citizens who enjoy extensive travel around the world, the Claus’ were thrilled to receive their ePassports — which are among the world’s most accepted and secure travel documents," an announcement reads (http://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/dailybrew/www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/media/releases/2013/2013-12-20.asp).
A quote attributed to Santa states, "After a long and joyous night of delivering Christmas gifts, Mrs. Claus and I are looking forward to our hassle-free vacation in Florida! Ho! Ho! Ho!"
Silly buggers…lol They think that they can change the Canadian passport as one of the easiest to counterfeit to most secure…lol
Oh well, Canucks beat the Ruskie's claim then.. ;)
Now about the rumour that Rudolph is a bisexual..lol
Wait until Phil Robertson finds out that Rudolph spends January through March in Arizona with his "friend"..lol
