Ottawa, April 25, 2013 – “The Liberals and NDP should not be attempting to thwart the will of Canadians,” said Devinder Shory, MP Calgary Northeast. “Bill C-425 gives us a much needed opportunity to strip convicted terrorists of their Canadian citizenship.”

Proposed amendments to Bill C-425, An Act to amend the Citizenship Act (honoring the Canadian armed forces) would allow for the stripping of Canadian citizenship from individuals who are convicted of terrorism offences under the Criminal Code of Canada.

“Why does the Liberal and NDP opposition oppose this important measure that over 80% of Canadians agree with and support?”

An NRG Research poll taken last October and commissioned by MP Devinder Shory showed that over 80% of Canadians agreed that Canadian citizens who are found guilty of committing acts of terrorism should be stripped of their citizenship.
