Canada Day was celebrated last week after controversial new rules came into effect under the country’s citizenship act. Bill C-24, the Strengthening Canadian Citizenship Act, has been met with strong public criticism, with the new law making Canadian citizenship harder to get and easier to lose. Two Ontario lawyers have launched a legal challenge to the act, arguing it’s unconstitutional, and a Change.org petition to repeal the changes has gained over 100,000 signatures.
