Durant l'été de 2003, le Bureau des passeports, en collaboration avec le gouvernement de la Colombie-Britannique (C.-B.), a réalisé un projet pilote faisant appel au Système de liaisons électroniques. Ce système permet aux employés du Bureau des passeports de comparer les renseignements qui figurent sur les extraits de naissances à ceux contenus dans les bases de données des statistiques de l'état civil de la C.-B. et de confirmer la citoyenneté canadienne en temps réel, améliorant ainsi la sécurité des voyageurs, tout en accélérant le processus d'autorisation pour les détenteurs de passeports valides. 1, record 2, French, - Syst%C3%A8me%20de%20liaisons%20%C3%A9lectroniques
