Service Canada sees long lineups for SIN cards in latest delay for Canadians

Service Canada offices across the country have seen long lineups as people look to travel once again or to obtain documentation, but the latest delay comes from requesting Social Insurance Numbers or SIN cards.
Part of the delay is seasonal as foreign students arrive and require SIN cards in order to study, but regardless of the reason, the wait times are tough especially when people are stuck outside in the rain and heat.
Sean O'Shea went out to speak with those waiting to find out what they're lining up for, why they're doing so for hours and if any changes could come soon.

Quality of life in Canada is declining. Compared to two decades ago, population growth is high but living standards are declining rapidly. Trudeau and his cabinets intermeddle US-China and Russia-Ukraine. Trudeau -💯 I have not received my June credit card invoice and a government letter which sent on Jul 27. But Canada Post made excuses that they couldn't view the lettermail and asked me to contact the sender to verify the address and ask them to reship it. Poor TBSD, teachers ask not to email them, they don't read on weekends.

I applied for PR six months ago, but it has not been processed yet. Service Canada has a lame excuse called the Pandamic. They are not concerned about how ordinary people are affected.

[@victorrivera1606]

It is interesting that that female international student, she says we have the right. Imagine her with PR

[@pbelite7935]

😂😅

[@gaetanomagnifico1836]

It's all by design. There's a truth coming that will not only shock the world, it will be Biblical.

[@barbaramatthews696]

Yes Many people have their blinders on if they can't see what we are leading up to!!

[@saddam9507]

Just call them "No Service Canada"

[@MohdIqbal-vq9qu]

If suppose you have your SIN number in your email and in your phone but lost your phone and all data and documents and photos of your official SIN and other documents were in your phone . Than someone misused from that phone or your SIN number so now the person is not aware and governament have record of their SIN number activities . So now who is guilty the person who lost phone and and he got new phone because he didn’t wanted to complain for 1000 dollar phone or the person who stole the phone and data ?

[@kaml.7341]

I didn't know that Service Canada has an office in India?

[@s.avelar.7979]

"Rules and principles were drawn up to accommodate the abusers." It's only happening in Canada, no other countries around the world are enduring government ABUSE. 👍🇨🇦🤥. It's abuse!

[@carolhamshaw7711]

Except the governments that point actual guns at their people...

[@mason2800]

Reporters do not even visit the places they are reporting on now.. 1:52

[@wme1000]

Guess they didn't think we'd notice he was standing in the rain without a jacket or umbrella. Reporting from home in front of a green screen saying they're a few meters away.

[@Madame_Different]

Are they stupid to wait in front of Service Canada? You can request for a SIN online...

[@carolhamshaw7711]

Like Mexico

[@markeves8949]

More Trudeau government incompetence. BASIC services. That said the statement about Rights, not necessarily.

[@isaacgriffin5690]

Lol all the people that blamed travlers for the passport troubles. No, we have a government incompetence problem.

[@arnoldmooney8143]

You'd think our government could do something right. But apparently not.

[@Rangetechus]

Who'd think? I mean who'd think they could get anything right after the past seven or so years....

[@vqz4304]

GO JAMES TOPP!!!!!!! Global news 👎👎💩

[@backtosleep]

Justin Sunny ways.

[@andersonsteven2501]

Anyone interested in cryptocurrency exchange for trons in exchange with ethereum

[@winstonsmith935]

That a Sin in itself.

[@vancouver4sure]

Ain't Justinastan great!

[@drbluechipx]

another federal service. that sounds about right.

[@bobmatt1966]

Imagine we pay all those taxes and this is the kind of service Canadians get..Time for this minister to step down so a competent person can take over.

[@barbaramatthews696]

I fully agree with you

[@andersonsteven2501]

Anyone interested in exchange ethereum for trons should should dm

[@commonsenserevolutionx1053]

Let's keep voting Liberal, this is Liberal service, it's what we vote for.

[@notentirelyapathetic9458]

Nothing this government touches survives.

[@barbaramatthews696]

The gentleman says This is not a Third World Country. It sure is beginning to look like one. Millions of Homeless people in every town & city throughout Canada and the United States. Health care is failing etc

[@RMatt2016]

A person who almost certainly was a citizen of a third world country (and is now living in Canada) would have the experience to comment on such a statement. A person who has solely lived in a first world country won't. Nor would a person who has solely lived in a third country

[@barbaramatthews696]

I said Almost looking like a Third World Country I didn't say it was one

[@kennethnwauke626]

I'm done sitting tight for the award advance since i acquire$23,000 every 12 days of my investment. ‌ ‌

[@corrinafroman6799]

I'm glad stumbled on this opportunity today

[@peaceandrelaxation5733]

Why are there too many Indians in Canada

[@robertobutz993]

Service Canada all over Canada requires more staff or rather more efficient and friendlier employees to man their offices nationwide.

[@tivie9261]

I applied a couple of years ago to work in the Ajax Office of Service "Cantada"...guess the Federal Gov't has "quietly quit"...

[@georgemorin4787]

Shut down, baby. Nobody's there anymore...

[@jdigital9568]

Canada lip-Service.

[@witekmichno6974]

Get rid of Trudeau.

[@mariadelgado4873]

What’s the problem not enough workers..?? They can’t get it Mail Or UPS & Fed X

[@commonsenserevolutionx1053]

Canada just doesn't work under the Liberals. But who cares, I love Justin's hair, and isn't he dreamy....it's worth Liberal management and all the screw ups just to have our Justin as PM.....let's keep voting them in shall we...all peoplekind love him, or are falling in love with him.....as a Liberal man....I just hope my wife doesn't get wind of my infatuation with my Justin!

[@georgemorin4787]

Wheee!

[@tivie9261]

Guess my taste in men different. Chretin more my type once he grabs me by the throat & chokes me out! Turner was the dude with both if us from UBC Track & Field...he got things done...I wore my "Big Block" sweater when he passed away out of respect.

[@Drcragory]

You have the right? You have the right to shut up, and if you don't like it, study it in a different country

[@albertedmonton5876]

Can you please shut up, because those foreign students bring money to Canada. They are not studying for free. They are moving up your economy. Thanks for understanding.

[@caitlynharbidge3056]

.... you can't even stay on topic sweetheart, who th would listen to you 😂😂😂😂

[@ROWGAMEROOM]

You would be OK with gulags lol "every country has a gulag, so you should be grateful" -Craig brainwashed Helmle.

[@bringbacktheplague]

Diversity is our Strength....😒.

[@maklorm5381]

Good 👍

[@AnhTuPhucDerrickHoangCanada]

So they can get a job

[@bigworknoscales]

I work for the passport office and I thought it was kind of hilarious that I was working from home while waiting in line to apply for my passport. Maybe that could be a reason for them not getting processed on time?

[@xdemgeo3581]

That's so many Indians. Canada is already India 2.0. JEsus

[@banker2679]

When your government acts on the whims of unions this is what you get. While the rest of us have been working through covid, government workers have had a two year covid holiday. I laughed when the guy said this is not a third world country. You voted for this, third world countries produce less carbon emissions, DO THE MATH…

[@primmakinsofis614]

PATCO all the public sector unions.

[@tmrnjfn4558]

This is Canada C'est le Canada

[@Skalavarking]

[@louismeloche3857]

Was that young girl just about in tears when she said "we have the right to be treated properly" ? The SIN card will change nothing. lol

[@mikevideo79]

There is simple solution do not allow immigrants and students to come here for at leas5 10 years until government sort out the mess they have created.

[@ROWGAMEROOM]

Then how does black face Trudeau get his votes?
