No smiling! We're Canadian





By SHAWN McCARTHY

From Wednesday's Globe and Mail



The Government of Canada says passport photos are no laughing matter: In fact, you're not even supposed to crack a smile.



In a news release yesterday, the Canada Passport Office issued new specifications for passport photos and wants serious faces only. But not too serious. Not actually frowning or scowling or glaring or grimacing.



To get a valid passport, Canadians must now send in two photos with "neutral expressions." That means a closed-mouth, straight-ahead gaze into the camera.

Turbans are fine, as are the head scarves worn by Muslim women. But not veils that hide the face, favoured by the most conservative Muslims.
