Let me just point out that there's a Canadian journalist who's also an Egyptian citizen who is on trial for terrorism in Egypt right now. If he is convicted, then in principle, he would fall under the purview of this act and be subject to citizenship revocation in Canada for a terrorism conviction in Egypt.
One of the dimensions of this act that I think is notable is that if we can revoke Canadian citizenship for a conviction of a terrorism offence in another country.... I guess that's because terrorism is thought to be a problem of global proportions, but if that's the case, then why are we thinking that revocation of Canadian citizenship leading to somebody becoming the problem of some other country is the appropriate solution?
Really, what that means then is that Canada gets to revoke somebody's citizenship and send them to another country. So there was a question earlier about what the world is going to think of Canada. What would the world think of Canada's having a criminal justice system that's able to prosecute, convict, and punish people, yet chooses instead to export somebody who it considers to be a terrorist, found under a court of law, to make it some other country's problem?
