Ontario Government and Canadian Citizenship

Canadian citizenship: Ontario to back citizenship by birth, Aug. 31, according to The Star. Already, the recent changes to the Citizenship Act will make it much more difficult for immigrants to acquire Canadian citizenship. All this talk of citizenship fraud associated with children of foreign born people will only fuel xenophobia, while doing little to protect the integrity of the citizenship system, if indeed such protection is needed and Re: Ontario to back citizenship by birth, Aug. 31 Kudos to the Ontario government for taking a principled stand on the right to citizenship for every person born in Canada. The musing by the federal government to remove citizenship by birth under the guise of so-called birth tourism is but another attack on the right to citizenship by certain individuals, namely people born outside of Canada and their children.
