Who carries this bill
Arrows run from the person responsible to those who answer to them on this bill. The critic leads the Senate’s scrutiny and answers to no one on it.
What it set out to do
On 19 June 2015, the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration introduced Bill C-75, An Act to amend the Citizenship Act and to make a consequential amendment to another Act (Oath of Citizenship Act), in the House of Commons and it was given first reading. Bill C-75 amends the Citizenship Act to add requirements respecting the oath of citizenship so as to ensure that persons who take the oath are seen and heard while they are taking it. It also makes a consequential amendment to the Strengthening Canadian Citizenship Act.
