Immigration Act – Children of Canadian Mothers

74.4 Immigration Act and Children of Canadian Mothers

Whereas, Children born outside of Canada of a Canadian mother may not be registered as Canadian citizens by the mother;

therefore,

RESOLVED, That (the Halifax Council of Women urge) The National Council of Women to request the Federal Government to amend the Canadian Citizenship Act so as to permit a Canadian woman to have the same rights as a Canadian man in respect to her children.
