I'm no Canadian passport connoisseur but when were they red? My old one from 10 years ago is blue so I'm not sure what that's about?
They are, but only if you're a diplomat
The White Power Ranger one is badass.
It's also expensive and very shortlived, so it has at least that going for it. Source: found out my passport had expired 24 hours before boarding a flight; Also, austrian temp passports are also white
Ah ok that makes sense
I was wondering, if it's perhaps relatively common between nations for passports to be red, but from some very quick image searching that doesn't really seem to be the case:
UK was red pre-brexit
And thank god it changed back. Of all the issues in my life, having to look at a red passport once every few months affected me so much that you can't even imagine the hardship. That and something about wonky bananas that I've been told was a massive problem that's only going to be fixed if I vote for that party which definitely represents me as I can have a beer with it's leader. I'm guessing he'll buy the round given his wealth that the woke London elite keep trying to take but he's stood up to them
South Africa green
You probably left the EU or something.
No one ever said it was red.
But they said it wasn't red. So one would question when they were.
I think I get it. They are expecting the passport to be red like the flag.
That says it's not red
I think their point is that there would be no reason to saying that it's not red if there was also no assumption of it being red in the first place
I'm not a racist, but seven doesn't feel like a prime number.
Yeah exactly that
Admire that you did this. Believe it or not, a lot of people on Lemmy have a hard time pointing out their mistakes. Commendable.
I do not think they have ever been red
