Thank you, Mr. Norlock, for your question.
We are very proud to be Canadian. Whenever we go around the world we are also very proud to show our Canadian passport, which is well recognized and established. What we realize is that individuals are abusing the generosity of Canadian individuals who have embraced Canadian principles and values, and they are ready to turn their backs on this society.
Just last Friday I met with the cross-cultural round table where we have people coming from different backgrounds. Most of them are not Canadian-born citizens and they all agree that when we are Canadians, we are winners. We are winners of the lottery. We are a great country, and to be a citizen of this country is a great privilege.
Those individuals who are committing terrorist acts using the Canadian passport don't deserve to use their citizenship to propagate violence around the world. That is why, once they are convicted of a terrorist act, I find it fairly appropriate to remove this tool and the great privilege it is to be a Canadian citizen.
