1,800 Canadians poised to lose citizenship: Kenney
Posted July 21, 2011
From a Toronto Star article:
Immigration Minister Jason Kenney confirmed Wednesday that as many as 1,800 new Canadians could be stripped of their citizenship because they were obtained fraudulently.
"We are in the process of notifying them that we will be revoking their citizenship because Canadian citizenship is not for sale," Kenney told the Economic Club of Canada.
Kenney said some of the individuals are believed to have used "unscrupulous" immigration consultants who submitted fraudulent applications on behalf of people who did not meet the qualifications for citizenship.
