Mr. Speaker, I have to agree when it comes to consistency.
I also find it unacceptable that this descent issue, which was rejected by the Conservatives at the time, is now being reintroduced.
However, we also have to be careful. If immigration is always associated with security issues, there is a risk of creating stigma. Security issues do not only involve immigrants; they affect the entire population, including people who were born here, who grew up here and who are unfortunately sometimes referred to as “old stock”.
