Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
The minister mentioned a two-tier citizenship, and a citizen is a citizen is a citizen.
Now the issue of lost Canadians I think has been brought to the minister's attention, and there are great concerns around this issue. Essentially the current legislation denies Canadians born abroad from the ability to pass on citizenship to their children, even in the event that there is significant contribution to Canada and to Canadians.
I wonder whether the minister would be willing to entertain amendments to this effect, if not to Bill C-6, then in a separate amendment. My former colleague, Olivia Chow, had tabled a private member's bill in this regard. Would the government be interested in entertaining such a move?
