A new regulation is in effect that requires individuals leaving or entering the United States to be photographed, including Canadians.

    so this is really not a big deal.

    I wanted to say… something different. Why bother with photographing if they already have photos of travelers? Sounds illogical.

      Maybe to match against the passport photos. Some people travel with other similar-looking people’s IDs, and it can be missed by inspectors. So having an current photo of the traveler can be used in post-hoc investigations to determine if they did so.
