It's usually not rich people who strive to become Canadian for the "passport of convenience". What, exactly, would being Canadian entitle them to that is so desirable?
It's the poor people in under developed Countries who become Canadian for "convenience" for our social services, etc.
Remember when we had to spend tens of millions evacuating thousands of them from Lebanon during the war?
We should probably be ENCOURAGING more wealthy people to actually become Canadian. But there's really no point.
If you're truly a very wealthy non-Canadian, a Canadian passport is not the one you want to get.
Have you ever noticed most REALLY rich Canadians don't even live here
?
