Living in Canada makes you not a citizen of convenience? How many are doing public service, serving in the military or frankly contributing at all? We don't provide healthcare to non-residents, do allow their children to pay Canadian rates in University, don't give the child benefits and don't tax them. Evacuation should be limited to those resident in Canada? There is an argument to be made for sure if you live in Lebanon you shouldn't be evacuated to Canada but that's not how we do it currently. We seem to charge people discouraging frivolous evacuation. Lots of those in Lebanon probably still owe money from the last time we evacuated them.
