The US security no-fly list could disrupt travel plans within Canada for certain Canadian youth.
According to CBC News, Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale says delays can occur for passengers who share the same name as those on Canadian AND American no-fly lists.
In an effort to cut back on disruptions, Goodale says officials have reminded airlines that they don't need to screen children as part of the Passenger Protect Program.
The Ministers department is also looking into changing the Secure Air Travel Regulations to help identify and separate individuals who have similar names to those on no-fly list, but are not the intended targets.

Quebec health minister Gaetan Barrette announced Wednesday that he wishes to standardize the cost of medical treatments for the province.
According to the Montreal Gazette, Barrette believes the standardized costs will save Quebec "hundreds of millions of dollars” and will reduce waiting times for patients.
Barrette also wishes to set an average base price for each health service in order for hospitals to bill the government and kickstart an initiative called “activity-based funding”.
Healthcare IT company Logibec will study the costs of medical procedures in institutions across the province.
The process is due to cost taxpayers up to 70 million dollars.
