Thank you. I'm going to ask the question.
In fact, I can't be more in agreement with Mr. Galloway when he says that citizenship is a fundamental human right. I've been working on that basis since I've been sitting on this committee. As Andrew mentioned when we toured across Canada, some witnesses came and told us the same thing. There is a series of rights attached to citizenship.
I want to get you to talk about the immigration issue. I recently had a case involving young children born on Canadian soil of refugee parents, who thus sought refugee status. Unfortunately, their claim on compassionate grounds was rejected, a removal order was issued against them, and they had to leave Canada.
Mr. Edmonston, I don't know whether you have any statistics on this, on how many young children born on Canadian soil have been removed from Canada. With regard to civil rights, would you have an overview of the quality of the information that is transmitted to persons who are removed concerning retention of their citizenship?
