    Tram 1 Tram Bui Ms.Mirlees Law CLU3M1-01 11 October 2015 The Canadian constitution is the country's supreme law and its “blueprint” takes control over all laws within the country as it sets specific guidelines for each Canadian individual regardless of how much or little power and wealth they possess. The constitution expresses how a country governs itself, and accommodates boundaries and rules that define what is a right or wrongful action of the government ( Ualawccsprod. 2013). This overall creates balance within the country which makes it appropriate to have a constitution, because without balance there would be less values towards everything such as one's life, and freedom.

    As a whole, Canada’s foreign policies are structured carefully to ensure the country’s national security, so long as Canada’s logo of kindness and tolerance lives on. In the face of the rising threat of terrorism in the world, Canada has not experienced any dramatic or physical attack occurring in public. This is majorly due to the well functioning system of Canada’s RCMP and friendly image. On another note, this clearly justifies the prestigious magnitude and significance of withholding Canada’s brand. Thereby, the most feasible and beneficial foreign policy to implement immediately, is the Refugees For Peacekeeping policy.…

    On behalf of the Immigration and Citizenship Society of Canada, it is suffice to say that the Canadian government through the bills of C-51 and C-24 are ruining the prestigious reputation of Canada as a country who welcomes and takes care of refugees. Our target is the people of the government, and the use of boundary making due to these laws is wrong. Everyone deserves a change at life in Canada, and these legislations do the opposite of that. These bills need to either be revoked or severely altered in a way that not every immigrant in Canada with a citizenship is monitored as a possible terrorist. The immigrants of Canada are people who should be glorified for choosing this country and wishing to work, pay taxes and contribute…
