Mr. Bissett, I want to expand a little bit on the point of revocation. A lot has been heard in this committee from different witnesses about the revocation of provisions in this bill. Certainly those who have dual citizenship also have a dual benefit, I might add. They have benefits that people who have only Canadian citizenship do not have. They have citizenship and rights in another country as well. The provisions in this bill state that, as you know, Canadian citizenship can be revoked from those who have dual citizenship and who choose to perpetrate an act of terror or an act of treason against the Canadian Armed Forces or Canada, the country we all live in and cherish so much. Obviously we as a government feel very strongly about that specific provision in the bill, and we'd like to hear what your comments would be on that, sir.
