Stephane Dion says he'll keep dual citizenship Updated Wed. Dec. 6 2006 9:43 AM ET CTV.ca News Staff
。。。
New Democratic MP Pat Martin told CTV News that Dion may encounter a lack of trust on some international issues.
"What if there is a trade dispute between France and Canada? Would he have to recuse himself?" Martin asked.
。。。
But Dion has so far suggested he will keep his French citizenship.
。。。 Even some Liberal MPs thought Dion should reconsider his stance.
"I would think that would be something that would probably have to happen - to give up this dual citizenship," said Paul Szabo. 。。。 Dion has dual citizenship through his mother, who was born in France.
You are correct. But what Tommy Douglas did was only for the province of Saskatchewan, while Pearson did it at the national level.
Tommy Douglas was Premier of Saskatchewan from 1944 to 1961. Under his leadership, Saskatchewan was the first province to adopt a universal medicare system in Canada. In 2004, Douglas was voted number one in CBC's The Greatest Canadian contest.
