I'd like to make a couple of comments, and then I'll invite my colleague Mr. Gilbert to add.
We're not necessarily aware that there's any particular problem in that regard, but there are a couple of points I'd like to make. One is that adoptees can come through two routes: they can come as citizens, if they're granted citizenship through the direct route, or they can come as permanent residents. Once the child becomes a permanent resident, the parents can either immediately apply for citizenship for that child or wait until later. Or they may leave the choice up to the child when the child reaches adulthood. That may happen in circumstances when they come from a country where the country doesn't recognize dual citizenship, and they may lose their original citizenship. It could be done for a variety of reasons.
A child who comes as a citizen is not subject to deportation. They have citizenship for life. That's the first thing. The next thing is that a child who comes as a permanent resident, and for whatever reason the family doesn't take out citizenship immediately for that child and the child moves on to adulthood, is subject to the laws like everyone else.
The committee will want to be aware that a permanent resident can be subject to removal from Canada if there are issues of serious criminality. The threshold is an important one. We're not talking about shoplifting. Permanent residents can be subject to removal from Canada if they've committed an offence that would warrant a maximum of ten years imprisonment or if they've committed an offence for which they've served a term of at least six months in an institution.
