Two Key components to Citizenship (Legal and
Symbolic)
Legal Citizenship provides rights for voting
Symbolic Citizenship provides feelings of inclusion and
integration into Canadian Society and Culture
Residents feel disillusioned and unwelcomed in Canada
when they are at the last stage of the citizenship
process and their applications are placed under review
Residents feel confusion and emotional stress when
dealing with Citizenship and Immigration Canada over
the status of their application

2013
Resident applications get triggered and flagged in the
system
Applicants are placed back to square one having to prove
residency or complete residency questionnaire
System backlog creates additional hardship for applicants
and families trying to settle into Canadian life and culture
System perpetuates a cyclical negative impact of emotional
stress by placing applicants in a precarious situation where
they live in fear of application denial and/or deportation.
