The Canadian government has revoked the citizenship of convicted terrorist Zakaria Amara, the mastermind behind a plot to detonate massive bombs in downtown Toronto.
A couple of prominent Canadians won’t be too happy about it:
NDP leader Tom Mulcair has said he would scrap the citizenship revocation law, and on Friday Liberal leader Justin Trudeau repeated his pledge to repeal it. “The bill creates second-class citizens,” he said. “No elected official should ever have the exclusive power to revoke Canadian citizenship. Under a Liberal government there will be no two-tiered citizenship. A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian.”
Yup. Love those Canadians.
Big mistake for Zoolander and the fuzzy-faced grimace guy. Nobody really wants to play host to terrorists in jail here for God only knows how long. This is not going to go over well with any reasonable Canadian.
“The bill creates second-class citizens,” he said.
That’s a feature, not a bug, ISIS-Boy.
This should be food for thought and for those with the capacity to reason a warning where a coalition of Mulcair and Trudeau would take the country. Don’t be fooled when they tell us they wouldn’t attempt to form a coalition, they know that scares too many people so they’ll never admit it. It would be a stormy marriage and a nightmare for Canada but the prospect of power is blinding to their already cockeyed thought processes.
Who will be king and who will be prince will be a tough one since Trudeau has to have room in his suit for more than one Butt.
Trudeau and Mulcare are fools
Yet another clear cut case of the left reacting emotionally to a situation and the right reacting sensibly.
Just like revealing your face to take citizenship or vote, the average Canadian can see it as a no-brainer. Meanwhile, the leaders and talking heads of the left are still trying to pander to the “don’t worry, be happy” crowd with fake moral stances.
Political correctness is a horribly stupid place to find your morals.
“The bill creates second-class citizens.”
Er, no. If your citizenship is revoked, you’re not a citizen anymore.
Do try to pay attention, Justin.
Trudeau and Mulcair aren’t even fit to be elected as Reeves in a little rural community somewhere, much less to be elected as the leaders of the second largest Nation in the world.
I agree that a natural-born Canadian should never have his/her citizenship revoked. It’s unthinkable. But a natural-born citizen of another country who acquires Canadian citizenship under false pretenses is something different.
Consider the following hypothetical example:
Suppose Osama Bin Ladin would have shaved his beard, ditched the Arab desert garb, got some plastic surgery to alter his appearance and put on a pair of glasses? And he then acquired a false identity, with a false name, false country of birth, et cetera, and proceeded to apply for Canadian citizen with completely false information on the Canadian citizen application. And he was accepted (as a millionaire it would have been easy to hire the best professional forgers in the world), and he proceeded to swear the Canadian citizenship oath under false pretenses (good old Islamic “taquia”).
The nincompoops Trudeau and Mulcair would still not revoke his citizenship. Their intractable position not only presents a danger to national security, but debases the value of Canadian citizenship to the level of something you could find in a box of Cracker Jack’s. No other country in the world devalues its citizenship the way that cracker jack Mulcair and Trudeau would have us devalue it.
P.S. (When are you finally going to fix your login “captcha” system Kate? Going on two years with the same problem — nothing worse than taking one’s time to write an intelligent comment and either losing it, or having to login twenty times before it is finally accepted!)
Good points though ric, all 8 of them.
I’ll bet that the 82% in favor of the Niqab ban are onside with citizenship revocation as well. Let’s hope this is referred to several times during the Monk debate.
IF these convicts are truly guilty of a bomb plot, I would think either deportation after a 20 yr life sentence would appease even the most hemorrhaging bleeding hart Prog. I’m sure most Canadians agree with this reasonable way to deal with terrorism. Any other nation would hang them.
If the dystopian left party leaders resist any just punishment for landed foreigners who reward our effusive hospitality/trust by planning to murder as many innocent Canadians as they can, they will again find themselves aligned against the public will as they do on so many other fundamental issues.
We have many in the U.S. of A that needs to have their american citizenship revoked starting with Obama and the rest of the black militants
Trudozo the talking points clown and the hairy faced citizen of France would rather force Canadians to get on their knees and worship the leftist imposed suicide pact of “multiculturalism” rather than fight/punish terrorism in our own country. I guess the lefts stance is that societal suicide is preferable to admitting you’re wrong, or that the threat of terrorism in our own country is real. Hey, Mulcair is a “duel citizen” too, maybe we can deport him for supporting terrorism, just a thought… As for that assclown Trudozo, just stick him in a canoe and push him out to sea where he can blather his carefully rehearsed talking points to the “9th decibel”… with a camera crew of course. Hey, one of these idiots has the terrorist vote all locked up.
I watched the video of that clown burning and shooting up his Canadian passport. I noted the lovely neighbourhood with expert landscaping and sculptured walls. Little wonder he prefers to find himself wherever he is. One advantage of these guys destroying their passports; if they have a change of heart, they’ll have a helluva time coming back.
The Western “intellectuals” and the liberal classes are just so dumb. What part of “We shall kill you” do they not understand?
Except for our stupid asinine politicians most Canadians are slowly starting to understand the threat that these muslim immigrants are. We are learning to hate them as they hate us … this is good. It is healthy to actually know and understand who wants you dead. It may help keep you alive.
Trudeau and Mulcair are two of the biggest lying phony bastards both running with same blow a muslim for a vote mentality.
There are citizens and non-citizens. Not two tiers, Binary , one or nought
Except for maybe the duallies like mulcair and may, with the possibility of Justin . Anyone else think he might have been a Cuban through uncle Fidel ?
Liz, its those reasons that I do not believe they will form a coalition. The only chance that could happen, imho, is if one of them had 130-140 seats, and the other, lets say Justina, had 50 seats. Then it might just happen, clearly, Grimace, would be Dear Leader.
But if the distribution is 110 and 90, its just not gonna happen.
Too many big egos, and Justina sees himself as Destiny’s Child, not second fiddle. Too many egos, who want the major portfolios, I just don’t see these unselfish SJW socialists sharing power with the other heathens!
Dan, I think there is a strong chance that JT will yet again be the leader of the 3rd party in the House.
How long do you think his ego can take that?
Justine and Angry Tommie the commie will never say they would form a coalition during the election, but post election, you wait. They will stand up together holding hands, saying they collectively need to save Canada. These recent events need them to act for the good of every Canadian and form the coalition. They will say they never wanted to go down this road but were “forced” to, and are now acting for good of all of us.
I say, God help us all, from these two idiots.
For the left history starts every morning. Its the only way to explain their positions on everything. Well that and the fact their so open minded their brains have spilled out.
Why do they hate us — Mulcair and Trudeau that is? And what ever happened to the good old crime of treason, with hang, draw and quartering or even just up against the wall for a good old-fashioned firing squad? I expect there would be no shortage of loyal Canadians willing to pull the trigger on this p. o s.
No Dan, I think you are wrong on that.
They likely despise each other as two suitors courting the same bride would.The knives are out.
However, neither party has the funds to run another effective campaign. Conservative supporters will and do ‘pony’ up.
Justin needs a strong showing to keep his base. With another month to go and his constant blunders,such as a hyphenated Canadian convicted of treason or terrorism is as Canadian as the rest of us Canadians, will eventually permeate into the consciousness of all but the most devout.
The NDP also has financial problems, along with anemic fundraising, that cannot be put off if there is another Conservative gov’t.
A coalition will happen if it is possible.
It will be sold as two adversaries putting aside their differences for the good of all. This will not be questioned by the media.
In the event of a Conservative minority, a coalition will come forth within days.
It’s happened AGAIN!!!
MulCair takes a wobbly stand, and I am forced to dissagree, and laugh!
There seems to be a pattern developing here….
I hope I am wrong Wally, but, the egos run large, that`s what I base my reasoning on, the egos trump all else.
Wrapping themselves in the flag is just a selling point to the LIVs.
Third place is where Justy deserves to be, but Tommunist`s support way be wavering in Quebec, hopefully, either Duceppe or Liztard will erode the Dips faux support. Quebec is such a wasteland.
Hard to say how long, but it will be all Harper`s fault, LOL.
I almost always refrain from posting anything political on my Facebook page but I made an exception here.
Dan, I hope Canadians wake up to the reality of Mulcair & Trudeau before the election!
I am most bothered by the press turning this into a presidential election , the most who can vote for Stephen Harper is perhaps 60000 and for Trudeau or mulcair maybe 50000 as Quebec tidings are always significantly smaller than western ridings
But you would think this is one ballot
I noticed mulcairs name on signs in my riding , like notleys were as well . Sick
Ego aside, how long do think the puppet masters behind the Liberal machine will tolerate being in third place … again? Their somewhat less than clever maneuver of installing the Son of P.E.T. as leader was brilliant on the surface except for the fact that Justin is clearly an idiot. He will be discarded in a hurry not unlike a sh*tty diaper at a Thanksgiving dinner. Oh well, at least people like Ralph Goodale will no longer have to swallow what inkling of pride and self-respect that they once had and continue to defend the cretin.
If Harper wins anything less than an outright majority on the night of Oct. 19th, we will all wake up on Oct. 20th with a coalition love-fest between Justine and the Tomunist. WITH LIBERALS, POWER TRUMPS ABSOULTELY EVERYTHING, including ego. God forbid this happens, but unless the Conservatives win a clear majority of seats there WILL BE a coalition of the left. I’d bet the house that they have already agreed that whichever of their parties gets the most seats, that leader gets to lead the coalition.
PS – Kate, pleeeeeeeease fix your Captcha. It has become a deterrent to commenting here.
“The NDP also has financial problems”
If they ever find it in their hearts to do the right thing and repay taxpayers for the funds they used illegally, their financial problems will become much, much worse.
For some reason, the media studiously avoids this little fiscal malfeasance so the liv knows nothing about it. Now Mike Duffy … that’s a completely different story.

Now that Zakaria Amara is a dirty stinking foreigner again, can we shoot him as a spy?
“A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian.”
Wow deep thinking there chump. In the greatest tradition of: “What kind of a proof? It’s a proof. A proof is a proof. And when you have a good proof, it’s because it’s proven.”
dump the dual citizenship nonsense. Canadians of convenience should not be allowed. mulcair should be a citizen of Canada and nowhere else otherwise mulcair, go to the elsewhere.
“dump the dual citizenship nonsense.”
Given that Canada only has the authority to determine its own citizenship rules, not those of other sovereign states, how exactly would you propose to “dump dual citizenship”?
Anyone who can’t see why granting the government the power to “un-Canadian” someone – anyone – is a dangerous precedent isn’t thinking through the implications. The enviromental left already wants to jail people for being skeptics about AGW. You want to give them the power to strip people of their citizenship?
JJM. the country refuses to give citizenship to anyone who will not renounce the citizenship of the other country. Canada has the right to do that. you do not have a right to be a citizen of Canada unless you were born here and you definitely do not have a right to be Canadian and something else. just where is your allegiance? where is mulcairs allegiance, here or france?
In Canada, a dual citizen’s other citizenship is completely irrelevant.
No.
