Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My question is also for Ms. Saperia.
You mentioned a number of criteria, including treason and armed conflict, as grounds on which citizenship can be revoked. You view the issue very much through a lens of national security. On the other hand, we've heard arguments from others who have talked about citizenship revocation having no place in a free and democratic society.
In your response to an earlier question, you said that this has nothing to do with discrimination, that it's fitting given the crime.
What would you say to the notion that laws like this could be used to discriminate against certain groups if applied unfairly? What would you say to narratives that I have heard from people in my own community, in Scarborough North, who have said, for example, that they were unfairly put on a no-fly list, and that simply by virtue of their last name have difficulty leaving on a flight, each and every time?
When there are laws that could be used unjustifiably against certain groups, do you not agree that it has everything to do with discrimination?
