Rocco Galati: The Constitutional Rights Centre, led by Toronto lawyer Rocco Galati, sent one letter to parliamentarians and another to Gov. Gen. David Johnston on Monday. Citizenship changes 'likely unconstitutional,' lawyers warn Marc Nadon appointment rejected by Supreme Court , according to CBC. The lawyers said they are alarmed by the provisions contained in Bill C-24 that would give the government more powers to revoke citizenship from dual nationals and expand the grounds for revocation. As the federal governments controversial citizenship bill is poised to pass into law without any amendments, a group of lawyers is warning parliamentarians and the governor general it will challenge the bill as unconstitutional. Galati successfully challenged Prime Minister Stephen Harpers appointment of Marc Nadon to the Supreme Court of Canada.
