Okay. Thank you, Chair.
Thank you for coming, Mr. De Angelis, and for your work to help people who are in dire straits throughout the world.
First I'd like to address what my colleague Mr. Lamoureux has brought up on several occasions, the creating of two classes. He does that to derogate the quality of the bill, but I would point out that in most cases laws will affect people differently. The main aspect or inherent intention of Mr. Shory's bill is not to create different classes of people but to make clear that citizenship is conditional, and the condition in this case is that you not commit acts of war against the people who share the citizenship you've been given.
That leads to my first point. Our minister has recommended that the committee include an amendment ensuring that no one will be left stateless. We've heard this now several times in this hearing. I want to get on the record and make categorically clear that you support such an amendment, given that it will ensure that we don't end up causing the problem you're most concerned about.
