In its original form, the private member's bill, Bill C-425, intended that if individuals with dual citizenship, those with citizenship in another country and in Canada, were to commit an act against a member of the Canadian military, they would be subject to the sanction of losing that citizenship.
Dans sa forme originale, le projet de loi d'initiative parlementaire C-425 prévoyait que les personnes ayant la double citoyenneté, c'est-à-dire la citoyenneté canadienne et une citoyenneté étrangère, qui commettent un acte de guerre contre les forces militaires canadiennes, se voient retirer la citoyenneté canadienne.
