Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Janzen, you've been coming to this committee's meetings ever since I've been on it, since 1998, and I'm sure you were coming before then. Every time I hear your story, I have to apologize to our soldiers and their descendants. This is terrible.
I feel awfully bad for each and every one of you. We deported the Acadians, and that's what your testimony brings across, Magali. And we don't recognize the religious marriages of the Mennonites. We have to give a collective head shake.
We had two ministers in less than a year who said we don't need a new act. The last minister said the numbers aren't very big. About a week ago she said 450 or 460. Vic Toews, the President of the Treasury Board, said that in his riding he has 2,000 at least who are border babies and were born out of wedlock.
My question to all of you is this: Do we need a new citizenship act?
