Repeal provisions in the *Citizenship Act* that give the government the right to strip citizenship from dual nationals.

What success looks like

Repealed provisions in the *Citizenship Act* that gave the government the right to strip citizenship from dual nationals.

Government's narrative on progress

In June 2017, legislation repealed unfair elements of the *Citizenship Act* that had applied only to Canadians with dual or multiple citizenships and allowed the government to strip them of their Canadian citizenship. The new legislation makes it easier for applicants to meet the requirements for citizenship, and helps immigrants obtain citizenship earlier and faster.

Note: this is the government's own description, not an independent assessment.
