A group of refugee lawyers announce plans to fight a new citizenship bill in court, arguing it violates constitutional protections. They contend the measure unfairly narrows eligibility and targets vulnerable communities, signaling a high court challenge ahead.
Refugee lawyers plan constitutional challenge to citizenship bill
The Canadian Association of Refugee Lawyers will pursue a court challenge to the Liberal governments proposed citizenship bill once it becomes law.

The BC Civil Liberties Association and Amnesty International Canada back the challenge though not formal participants.
