As far as the situation of Quebec veterans is concerned, I agree entirely with you in saying that citizenship is a continuum. As you probably noted in our presentation, we talk about the birth of a nation, in 1917, as we are celebrating the 90th anniversary of Vimy. In my opinion, stating that Canadian citizenship saw the light of day in 1947 is truly an absurdity. We do not understand how Judge Martineau's decision can be challenged.
