"I have mentioned before, rather often I think, that, to quote the Center for Immigration Studies, "Of advanced economies, Canada and the United States are the only countries that grant automatic citizenship to children born to illegal aliens."
In an age of cheap and easy international travel, birthright citizenship is, for prosperous and stable nations, an invitation to obstetric tourism. For nations that do not carefully control their borders and track foreign visa holders, birthright citizenship is also one more incentive to illegal immigration.
..Last weekend at the biennial convention of Canada's Conservative Party delegates passed a resolution changing the party's policy book to say, quote:
We encourage the government to enact legislation which will fully eliminate birthright citizenship in Canada unless one of the parents of the child born in Canada is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada.
...Birthright-citizenship-wise, it may soon be America alone.
Then we'll be getting all the obstetric tourists instead of just half of them."
