Good idea. Removed the comment about voting.

Hello people, I have sent the following email to Minister Hussen: Ahmed.Hussen@PARL.GC.CA Anyone else in the same boat is welcome to copy and send it too. Or add anything else that bothered you about the new citizenship application. Cheers, rmorgan Subject: Ambiguous Wording of Question 9C...

I have seen two school records from different elementary schools of the Halton District School Board. They DO have the child's photograph. Both children were under 16...

I search out dpenabill's post on any topics...they are a treasure trove of pearls :-) Much appreciated. As are posts by some others, like spyfy!

This reads: Q.13. Have you ever had immigration or citizenship status in any country other than Canada, including your country of birth? I initially took immigration status to mean only permanent residency/Green Card status etc, but the Help Button, and the Guide include "Student" status as...

Good day people, Items 9.C, 11 and 16 in the Citizenship Application form for Adults, have caused some confusion. Well, I have just come across Item 8.C, which asks for a Yes/No response to the following Question: Did the parent leave Canada for more than 1 year before Feburary 15th, 1977...

For Dpenabill and Spyfy From, the online instruction guide Reminders… Here are some reminders to avoid your application being returned to you: You must be eligible for citizenship the day before you sign the application. So is 12th October the earliest we can apply? After all, most of the...

Luckily I had the original page still opened on my laptop and could paste it... Perhaps the new forms may be available before Oct 11th?

Bill C-6 is on the Orders of the Day for consideration today in the Senate: https://sencanada.ca/en/content/sen/chamber/421/orderpaper/132op_2017-06-14-e

Thank you for taking the time and starting this thread Spyfy.

Yes, EVERY Clause of Bill C-6 has been passed by the Committee!! Congrats to those who favored its passing. Now the Committee are only considering observations - Currently discussing parental rights/citizenship for children adopted outside Canada. I guess they may raise the matter of judicial...

Wow. Congrats to those who wanted Bill C-6 to pass through the Senate Committee!! Bill C-6 just passed its Clause by Clause Consideration by the Senate Committee. Only two polled votes were held (both relating to C-6's disallowing the revocation of citizenship of dual nationals convicted of...

Committee meeting in progress. And Don Meredith is VOTING with the Liberals. They just voted 8/5 to PASS Clause 3. So NO REVOCATION of Citizenship for DUAL Nationals. A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian.

Will be interesting to see what roadblocks, if any, the Conservative Senators can pull off in the Clause by Clause Consideration tomorrow morning. And if ALL the Independents will really vote in favor of C-6. Here's hoping they do!

Wow. This Minister is very vocal and clear that the central focus of C-6 was to remove the 'barriers' created by C-24 (longer residence time, etc) as well as to remove the two tiered citizenship that had created.

Next Senate Committee meetings on C-6 confirmed for 1st and 2nd March :D

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone. The year when C-6 will hopefully become law in its entirety. Btw the 'Belgium-Netherlands' Saint-Nicholas was born and lived in what is now Turkey :-)
