Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for the question. It allows me to reprise the core theme of my first speech on the bill, which is that Canadian citizenship has value insofar as Canadian citizens contribute value. We put money into the pot, and then when we need our health care system, it is there for us.
However, to say that 100,000 individuals who have never been to Canada, but whose grandparents were Canadian citizens and left, can come here for free health care or evacuation help from our embassy if a conflict arises, fundamentally misunderstands how citizenship works and how value is built. I find that particularly ironic given that the Prime Minister, who is ramming this through, wrote a book on values. He is an economist, yet he does not seem to understand the economy of value. We have value in citizenship only when we work hard together to build it.
