The global standing of Canada’s passport continues to decline compared to some Asian and European nations, but it still maintains a higher ranking than the United States, new data indicates.

A Canadian passport achieved a score of 184 points on the latest count by the Henley Passport Index to secure eighth place, while the United States scored 182 points to rank 10th. The index ranks 199 passports worldwide each year, based on data provided by the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
