Mr. Speaker, I listened to the speech intently. One thing we need to know as we study this bill in the House and maybe further in committee is the impact of it on Canada. In other words, how many people would this bill impact? How many new Canadians would it create?
I ask that because it is important. It would affect the administrative requirements of Canada with people applying for citizenship, applying for old age security and applying for passports. Also, there would be financial implications. If people are going to gain old age security, that is going to be a cost.
I wonder if the member has an idea of how many people this bill would impact and what the cost would be.
