I don't know, but I found this link, and it appears we'll be getting new passports starting in 2011 that will be more secure and valid for 10 years: http://www.canada.com/topics/travel/...a-e7efbe8bf89b

It looks like they'll also have new biometric features, including fingerprints, so hopefully problems like that woman faced in Kenya won't happen again.
