And then this:

From the Toronto Sun

Bill C-6, which proposes changes to the Citizenship Act does a number of troubling things:

– removes the right to revoke citizenships from dual nationals convicted terrorists;

– ends the obligation for new citizens 14-18 and 55-65 to know either English or French or even pass a citizenship test;

– reduces the number of days someone must spend in Canada before they are eligible for citizenship;

– eliminates the obligation that a new citizen will have to “intend” to reside in Canada.

Canada is a generous country. We allow new citizens, under most conditions, to retain the passport of their birth. These individuals become fully eligible for all the benefits from our generous social safety net that Canadians have worked so hard over generations to provide.

These benefits include but are not limited to our universal health care system, Old Age Security, Guaranteed Income Supplement, as well as access to our education system.
