Canada's Bill C-71 proposes to extend continuous citizenship transmission to Canadians born abroad and their descendants.

Canada's Bill C-71 seeks to amend the Citizenship Act to allow continuous citizenship transmission for Canadians born abroad and their descendants, contrary to the current first-generation limit.

Additionally, concerns about birth tourism and the absence of citizenship tests have been raised.
