I see you answered what I was going to ask below, as in why in gods name would you care if someone had a dual citizenship.

How can you be loyal to two different countries, especially in times of conflict? People chose to move here, away from their home country making Canada their NEW home. Nobody forced them to come here and apply for citizenship. People of dual citizenship want their cake and they want to eat it too. Its time to chose where your loyalties lie.
You're right, ultimately this conflict between Iceland and Canada has lasted for decades with so many lives lost... Oh wait, no. wtf.

Quote:
Why should you have more rights and options that a Canadian who doesn't hold dual citizenship? ie. one who was born here. Chose which country you want to be loyal to, I say.
So this is the crux of it, you are upset people who earned citizenship's in two countries have more options than you??

I have the same "rights" as you in Canada, no more, no less. But obviously the problem you have is that I have more options because our family took a very difficult journey to uproot from our homeland and come to Canada. Now because of the sacrifices and struggles we benefit from two awesome places to call home.
