Fox News
Canada has removed a famous World War I memorial and sports hero Terry Fox, who raised money by trying to run across Canada after losing his leg to cancer, from their passport design.
Fraser also revealed the design was the result of a 10-year consultation process. The new passport still bears Canada's national crest but also includes a maple leaf on the cover, while inside there are animals and natural scenes, including children jumping into a lake, CBC reported. Peter Aitken is a Fox News Digital reporter with a focus on national and global news.
The new passport includes improved security features, such as an updated "tamper-proof data page," metallic foils, color-shifting ink images and watermarks that only show up under ultraviolet light.
