If the applicant is from a visa exempt country (Spain) will the passport request be for the ACTUAL passport or just copies of every page?

typically, it's just a scanned copy of the bio page, not the entire passport.

it's also quite common for visa exempt applicants to not get a PPR, provided it is unlikely they will change their name and their passport is valid for more than 6 mo.

The PPR email we received from the VO in Tel Aviv requested photocopies of all the pages of the passport.

"If you are a citizen of a country that is exempt from obtaining a visa to visit Canada under Regulation 190 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, you may send only a photocopy of your passport (all pages) and of the passport of your accompanying spouse and dependent children (all pages visa office]."

then it must be dependant on the visa office. for ottawa (and i believe london as well) all that is necessary is the bio page. the request letter will specificy.
