Passport Office, let the buck stops over there ...

So, I heard today the Canadian Passport Office has withdrawn its plan for passport applications over the net. The official explaination cited for the withdrawal was quite insulting of Canadians. Apparently they withdrew services because they decided it was not "convenient" for the general public to access their services. Wow! blame the public - their clienteles - when their setup was amateurish and most mediocre the first place. Last year their system was compromised, and recently Canada's privacy commissioner called their setup "sloppy". What's wrong with these people? I swear somebody was sleeping on the job. What ever happened to accountability? I say sack the IT department. Better still, fire the politician who is in charge of that department. Let the buck stops there and maybe the message will get across that it's not the people's fault when they screwed up over there. Jus my 2-cent worth.
