Do you have any sense, though, that this will be a larger number? Given the fact that the requirement right now affects air travellers, a lot of folks who travel by air would normally have a passport in any case. But when we get to the point of land border crossings, which many Canadians make on a regular basis, those people have never had to have a passport in the past. My suspicion would be that there's a much larger group of people who have never had to have this kind of documentation. Is that the department's suspicion? Is there any sort of planning toward accommodating an increase in applications?
