Conservative Shadow Minister for Immigration Michelle Rempel Garner has renewed calls for the Liberal Government to abandon virtual citizenship ceremonies and return to in-person events. Rempel Garner criticized the current system, where over half of new Canadians take their citizenship oath online, describing it as inadequate for such a significant milestone. She argued that in-person ceremonies represent the unifying foundation of Canadian civic life and should be treated with the same gravity as other life-changing commitments. The Conservatives maintain that restoring traditional ceremonies would help rebuild public confidence in Canada’s immigration system, as support has reached historic lows.
