Thank you, Mr. Chair.
There are two prongs to this private member's bill, and both are being articulated—speeding up citizenship, and renunciation for those with dual citizenship for engaging in acts of war, etc.—so I'm not going to waste the committee's time.
I'm pleased to see that the government has come to the determination that the amendments were outside the scope of this bill. We continue to have concerns with the bill, which we feel is very ambiguous in some areas, in the way of terms. We continue to have concerns around statelessness.
We're also very concerned about the co-opting, let's say, of a private member's bill. There are many different ways governments, especially majority governments, can get their legislation addressed and into the House. We have a bill here that in part is very difficult to understand and needs major work. We have said that before, and we continue to have our original concerns as expressed.
