Letts can claim Canadian citizenship through his father and now that Britain won’t take him back from a Kurdish prison, all eyes are on Canada.

Based on what he has said in the past, including passing Bill C-6 which restored citizenship to convicted jihadists, you one might reasonably think Justin Trudeau would be fully behind this.

“We know diversity is our strength, and for this side of the House, a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian,” Trudeau said in October 2017.

At the time, Trudeau was praising C-6 which allowed people like Zakaria Amara, a key person in the Toronto 18 terror plot, to regain their Canadian citizenship. Amara, born in Jordan, could have been deported from Canada upon completion of his life sentence.
