Mr. Speaker, the legislation is extremely important, but it affects a minority of people in the population. For those we are trying to rectify this for, it is of significant importance. Even if we can rectify the situation for a few thousand people, that is why we are here. This is for people who have a tie to Canada, have lost their right to citizenship and whose situations were not remedied by the 2009 and 2015 legislation. Those are the ones who are crying, because they have a deep commitment to Canada. They want to become Canadians, but they also want the right to pass citizenship on to their children.
