Canadian government seeks extension to pass citizenship law for "lost Canadians" by March 2025.
The Canadian government is seeking a three-month extension from an Ontario court to pass citizenship legislation for "lost Canadians," individuals born abroad to Canadian parents also born overseas. The 2009 law prevented these individuals from inheriting citizenship, deemed unconstitutional in 2021. The government argues the delay is needed to avoid a "legislative gap," while the affected families' legal team believes the delay is excessive. The deadline is now set for March 19, 2025.
