Can anyone confirm that young Omar has "dual citizenship" (Pakistani and Canadian)?
For the record, I am strongly opposed to dual citizenships. You are either Canadian or not. You can't be 1/2 Canadian and 1/2 Vulcan.

Almost all countries allow dual citizenship. You and others may be pleased to know, that Denmark does not.
Black volunteered to forsake his citizen ship so he could accept a knighthood, the govt had nothing to do with it beyond Chretien holding a grudge
There is no law that would allow us to resind his citizenship he was born here, he is unfortunalty ours to deal with. As far as taking up arms agains Canada not even I can see a way to charge him with that. The proper charge would be treason, it would be a stretch as freedom of association is I believe guarenteed as a right. Unless the group was found to be a criminal organization ( a tough sell) .The crown would have to prove treason against Canada, and there is a built in defence in that he was a volunteer defending a country against an invasion.
So again we are stuck with him.
He was ALWAYS our problem. It's just a reality that a 2nd rate nation cannot deal with it's own problems and needs help from Uncle Sam.
The lieing on the citizenship application forms is probably not the only offence that would get that result. If brought up to trial and convicted a judge could order her citizenship revoked due to her failing to live up to the responsibilities of a Canadian citizen, again a tough sell specifically with our judiciary. If the govt tried to recind the cirizenship it would end up in the supreme court without a doubt, the ramifications are to wide for it not to. But I am more than happy to support a law that would allow the revocation of citizenship for offences. It would need to be a carefully written law and I expect it would need to be parsed by the SC before going to parliment
Hitler was Irish? Really.. now THAT is news to me!!! lol ...you have a great way of half replying to posts.. must be a politican...
However your motive, it is entirely impractical. Firstly, it would have to apply to all citizens, as the charter does not recognize different classes of citizens. Secondly, which other country do you expect to take the ones that are set adrift from Canada?
While I cannot definitely answer your question, certainly it is possible (see just below F).

How much true faith and allegiance do you believe the Khadrs have shown?
Rather the reverse of do pigs fly.
You're right, Dutch.
Karla lived in Canada for a while, but she left for greener pastures not long after she was making the news on a regular basis.
She chose anonymity elsewhere over notoriety domestically.
Omar will be in a 24/7 fishtank wherever he settles in Canada.
Let him come back to that and sooner rather than later he'll be looking for a way out.
I guess your answer is you do not think they have given false information on their application form. As I understand it, that is the only possible avenue for rescinding citizenship for the Khadrs (and myself). A canadian citizen cannot have his/her citizenship revoked for any other reason. Behaving badly or insulting other Terb members thankfully cannot result in your citizenship being revoked. As I posted above, if Canada were to take away someones citizenship for bad behaviour, which country do you think would give them citizenship?
The Canada I am a citizen of does not have mob rule.
Until I read/hear such a confession from Omar Khadr, I'll reserve my judgment. So far, everything I've read and heard about his role in the firefight in question has been unsubstantiated hearsay and conjecture without a shred of evidence or even a reliable witness. Here's a pretty good example of that.
You'd be well served to try and do the same - until then, I'd recommend that you keep your eyes and mind open as well as trying to keep your opinions civilized and not lecture others. I know that might require an unbiased, wait-and-see approach, but you can do it!
