It won't happen until late summer
No they already started

As of June 19, 2023, we started to issue the new passports. Until we finish installing the printers for the new passports in all offices, you may still get the current passport when you apply. By spring 2024, we’ll only be issuing the new passports.

If you already have a valid passport, it’s still secure and reliable. You don’t need to apply for a new one.

They still have to go through old stock so not all offices have the new passports.

Someone mentioned that they got the new version of the passport from Ottawa office. Old versions are still valid, all depends on when the locations will get the new machines to produce the new versions.
