Trudeau Liberals Introduce Bill C-71 to Extend Citizenship to Children Born Abroad
May 23, 2024, 03:54 PM
The Trudeau Liberals have introduced a new bill, Bill C-71, to extend Canadian citizenship rights to children born abroad. The legislation, tabled by Immigration Minister Marc Miller, allows children born outside Canada to gain automatic citizenship if one parent has spent at least three years in Canada. This bill aims to restore the rights of 'lost Canadians' and ensure that future generations can retain their Canadian citizenship. The move follows a court order and seeks to undo changes made by the Harper government, which limited citizenship by descent to the first generation born abroad. Minister Miller emphasized the importance of making Canadian citizenship fair, accessible, and governed by clear and transparent rules.
