A lot of people don't have passports. You would be surprised at the number of people who have never travelled to another country or the country(s) they travelled to didn't require you to have a passport (ie USA, which until last year you didn't need a passport or Mexico which until this year you didn't need a passport).

Mexico has been a very popular destination for university students (who normally don't have passports yet) because you used to be able to just hop on a direct flight from Canada to Mexico and show up with your birth certificate and a drivers license and they would let you into the country. .... (I myself have done this when I went to Mazatland, Mexico... it was spring break.... went down there with a few buddies).
