“In Canada, a government decision to revoke citizenship might affect an individual’s life, liberty or security and must only take place in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice,” said Alex Neve, Secretary General, Amnesty International Canada, English speaking branch. “It is also vital that citizenship revocation not expose individuals to discrimination.

These provisions must be withdrawn.”
