The petitioners want Parliament to take note that on average about 2,000 children are adopted from other countries each year and that children adopted by residents of the United States of America and Great Britain are granted automatic citizenship upon adoption, finalization and entry into the country, or on the date of the adoption order respectively.

To promote and protect the well being of each child in accordance with the document "A World Fit for Children" agreed at the UN special session on Children (New York, 8-10 May 2002).

Admission can be refused or withdrawn if its is that a marriage or adoption of a child is fraudulent and only aims at gaining admission for the spouse or adopted child.

We are also concerned about children adopted from foreign jurisdictions who do not have the same right to automatic citizenship as children born to Canadians abroad or adopted in this country; all adopted children whose adoptive parents do not have equitable maternity benefits so they have time to integrate their children into their families; and about the right to know origins.
