The remaining time I have left is slight. Part of the education piece, the publicity you talked about, would be to talk more frankly about the challenges and risks of dual nationality. Statements like “Canadians are Canadians are Canadians” probably don't help that education piece.
The other comment I'd like to make is on unequivocal statements like “Canadians will never negotiate with terrorists”. Isn't it more prudent to just not talk about acute, high-risk consular cases rather than have blanket public statements?
