Parents of these children took a calculated risk to deliver babies in Canada ... are 'passport babies' or 'anchor babies'  supposed to confer a 'right' to Canadian residency? No.  Nowhere else in the world does accidental or deliberate place of birth confer citizenship on non-citizens.  When Canada offers more than other nations, there will be a line-up of people ready to take advantage. International rights for children -- does this mean warring nations can be tried at the international court in the Hague for not providing education, care and food to their children? What about 'wrongful birth' where parents put their own interests ahead of their children's? How about foreign women who give birth in Vancouver hospitals, then leave with their Passport babies WITHOUT paying their hospital bills? Canada's debt will rise because more people use these forms of illegal access costing Canadian taxpayers.  Societies must change in those homelands, not expect Canada to accommodate them here.
