Ain't all Canadians kinda dual citizens? Y'know, voting for the Canadian Parliament, but also subjects of the lord and master over there in England (where y'all can't vote)?
Shh, don't complicate the issue
Good point. If you're, say, Norwegian, and you want to be Canadian, is there even a way to force Norway to revoke your citizenship?
To be honest, that thought never occurred to me.
By the way, thank you for admitting that this question isn't about ALL other countries.
True.
The Conservatives should look into bringing back the Chinese Exclusion Act.
I guess here's where I swing a little more to the right.
Due to the actions going on in/with China and India lately, IMO no dual-citizen should be allowed to be an MP (not just Indian or Chinese, but they're the big two lately).
Vote, sure, but not someone who becomes part of our Government.
If the person is willing to step away from their Indian/Chinese citizenship - even if the other Governments say no we won't deny them - that might open the door to negotiation.
But personally I do not trust the Indian nor Chinese Government. And if an MP - or even MLA - wants to be part of the CANADIAN Government system, they should be Canadian focused. I realize that it won't mean they suddenly aren't able to be bought/bribed/whatever from said Governments - or other Governments, say - but it'd give the Canadian governments a little more wiggle room, IMO, to deal with said people if things do go sideways.
