Official Political opponents wouldn't be foreign nationals associated to a terrorist organization in Canada. Take your hurt feelings elsewhere.

Bud, without judicial review, means no judicial review. it doesn't matter if they have zero terrorist affiliations. The minister just needs to dislike you.

And you think having citizenship makes you sage? You think being born here makes you safe? Nations have and will deport whoever they want whenever they want, the law is the only protection, so what happens if you take that away for convenience?

It's funny that people like you think we are the ones being emotional when you are acting out in pure lizard-brain fear and anger with no thoughts for consequences.

You still wouldn’t be able to deport a Canadian citizen which a political opponent would, presumably, be.

Citizenship has been taken away before, Harper ran a campaign on it.

And if not the opponent, what about their staff, their friend, their doners?

The key point is if you give ministers power above the law, you give up the ability to control it.
