Hey buckey, long time no see.

Got a question for you.

Why, in 2016, did the Canadian government decide that Canadian citizens with double nationality CANNOT enter the country without a Canadian passport.

I have a French passport, not really because I want to appear to be french, actually I'd prefer to have a Canadian one, BUT, they make it so fucking complicated to get one when you are overseas and have double nationality that it was just simpler to head over to city hall, get fingerprinted, fill out forms, and I'm done. 3 weeks later passport ready at city hall.

Aside from the bureaucratic shit, What I want to know is what was the point of this new law? Why don't they want Canadians coming back on other passports? Has there been massive abuse?
