Thank you.
I would like to come back to the issue of adoption. I will not go into the reasons again, but I do have one last question. When parents decide to adopt a child abroad, and, of course, the child comes back to Canada to live with the parents, there are two ways for the child to get his or her citizenship: naturalization or direct grant. That is a difficult choice. Naturalization is a longer, more complicated process, but it gives the child more rights. The procedure for a direct grant of citizenship is simpler, but the adopted children will not be able to pass on their citizenship to their children if they are born abroad.
Why does the system give parents such a difficult choice? What would Canada lose if parents could use the faster procedure and still give their children the same rights?
