Ottawa Asks to Jail Migrants, Asylum Seekers Despite Rights Violations

Would really just like the government to end birthright citizenship in Canada. If parents aren’t Canadian through birth or gaining citizenship then any kids born here don’t get it either.

I’d say that if the parents get citizenship within 5 years of the child’s birth and can pass a comprehensive (spoken) language test in English or French at grade 7 level, then their kids can get citizenship as well.

Can I ask your reason for wanting this? (Preferably not just “their parents aren’t citizens, why should they be?”)

Birthright without any conditions is dumb in this day and age.
