I just want to pick up where we left off with Alexis' question. I want to make sure I have this absolutely clear in my mind.
The problem that I articulated in my initial remarks, the problem I'm aiming to solve, is not in relation to kids who are adopted. Subsection 5.1(4) speaks to kids who are adopted. That's fair, but the problem I'm trying to solve here is that those then-adopted kids, when they have kids outside of the country, are treated differently.
To be crystal clear here, this amendment will solve that problem. An internationally adopted kid.... Your advice before was that my previous amendment would have no effect. As I articulated, the problem I'm trying to solve is for a kid who is adopted through an intercountry adoption, becomes a citizen of Canada through direct grant and then has a kid elsewhere. They don't adopt a kid elsewhere; they themselves have a kid elsewhere. They are going to be able to pass their citizenship on directly if this amendment is passed.
Is that the advice? I see heads shaking, and that's my concern.
Could you answer that question, please?
