The organization running Toronto's Pearson International Airport is ``urgently'' calling on the federal government to help alleviate major delays affecting passengers at clearance points due to a shortage of staff.

The Greater Toronto Airports Authority says Ottawa needs to make investments to boost staffing levels as well as ``streamline'' COVID-19 public health requirements to deal with the issue.

The Vancouver International Airport is also experiencing delays and on Sunday urged passengers to arrive two to three hours ahead of their flights in order to get through the security screening process.
