The Canadian government is going to crack down on 6,500 people from over 100 countries who have attempted to gain citizenship or permanent resident status illegally.
This stunning announcement comes six months after Ottawa moved to strip 1,800 people of their Canadian citizenship or permanent resident status for the same reasons.
Immigration Minister Jason Kenney stressed Canadians will not tolerate cheats. The minister needs to be congratulated for taking this bold step. It is the right step.
It also sends out the right message to everyone who wants to make new homes in Canada. No one should take citizenship for granted. “Canadian citizenship is not for sale,” Kenney emphasized.
