I think denying citizenship to someone for the 'crime' of criticizing a war of conquest is not what was intended with this law. I think there should be, and will be very surprised if there is not, an exception made in this case.
Yeah, I suspect this one will get an exception quickly, given the press. But it'll set an interesting precedent if applied to the Israel-Hamas situation.

that article is super confusing. the first paragraph reads:
which makes it sound like they allowed her to be a citizen, but the rest of the article is about how it didn't let her.
I think it's been quietly editted or the wrong link was posted. Here's a brand new article from CBC. It seems to be break news.
