1. Family reunification is ALREADY limited to "close family"
2. Forcing people to avoid claiming benefits they are entitled to and need under threat of being refused citizenship is horrifically cruel. That was the policy under Michael McDowell and it caused great hardship to the most vulnerable.

New: major overhaul of immigration laws to see citizenship denied to those who got welfare, or are in debt. Family reunification only for close family, tighter rules around self sufficiency. Changes to revoke residency for those who commit serious crimes

Cis men are committing violent acts every day, but the GC lot want to focus their attention on what folk look like if they need to pee?
This will result in the policing of the appearance of all women & make toilets hostile spaces.
It is regressive, ridiculous &does nothing to improve anyones safety.

Fixed it for you. Idiots! If the exclusion is based on appearance then it will certainly impact cis folks as well as trans folks.

Anyone who’s ever used emergency contraception or gains peace of mind by even having it on hand owes Dr Camp a debt of gratitude. What a force.
