This would be a monumental step towards committing genocide. If you can strip citizenship for z, y, or z reasons, you can strip citizenship for a, b, or c reasons too. Then, you take those “noncitizens” and put them in a camp. Then you evolve your “solution” to the Jewish Non-citizen Question into a FINAL Solution.
In fact, this could ammount to a crime against humanity under the Rome Statute’s prohibition against certain types of deportation. Specifically, Article 7(1)(d)'s prohibition on deportation is defind in (2)(d), which reads:
Deportation or forcible transfer of population" means forced displacement of the persons concerned by expulsion or other coercive acts from the area in which they are lawfully present, without grounds permitted under international law.
Nazis did this exact thing to the German jews. Admittedly, the United States didn’t ratify the Rome statute, but it did sign it in 2000. I guess the Nazi cancer has been here a while. No time like the present to use a blade.
I almost qualify, but my mom died when I was young, and she’s the one who would have been eligible, and me through her. 😭
How do you almost qualify? Do you have a Canadian grandparent? If so, you qualify.
What requirement are you missing? Your mom didn’t live in Canada long enough?
My mother had grandparents who were citizens, but because she died young, she isn’t able to claim it, which I think makes me intelligible, even though both her older and younger sisters are still alive and themselves eligible and may claim it under those updated rules.
