Mr. Speaker, I would like to provide some clarity.
Let us imagine that I moved to Germany, and my daughter Cindy is born in Germany. If I had Cindy when I was in Germany, in order for her to pass on Canadian citizenship to my potential grandchild, she would have to prove a substantial connection to Canada of 1,095 days. As long as she was able to do that before she has a child, that child, my grandchild, would be a Canadian citizen.
Would my colleague agree that providing the opportunity for Canadians to have their grandchildren be Canadian is a good thing?
