Bill C-213 — Loi modifiant la Loi sur l’immigration et la protection des réfugiés (perte de l'asile)
This proposed law, put forward by Jenny Kwan, focuses on refugee protection in Canada. Currently, if someone Canada has recognized as a refugee later becomes a citizen of another country, Canada takes away their refugee status. This proposed law would change that. It says that even if a refugee becomes a citizen of another country, Canada will continue to protect them as a refugee. This change would affect anyone who has been accepted as a refugee in Canada and later gains citizenship in another country. It means they could keep their Canadian refugee protection even after becoming a citizen elsewhere. This matters because it could offer more security to refugees who may still need Canada's protection, even if they have citizenship in another country. It acknowledges that becoming a citizen of another country doesn't always mean a refugee is safe from the dangers they originally fled.
I want to get rid of unfair rules made by the Conservatives that hurt refugees. These rules stop people from visiting their home country, even to see dying family, without losing their status here. I hope everyone will support my bill to fix this.
