I don't think that rights are being infringed. It is Canada's right as a sovreign nation to refuse citizenship. In the two tier system we have, a person applies for Landed Immigrant Status. After five years (I think) they can apply for citizenship. Once they have citizenship then they have all the rights guaranteed under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The point is that one can be choosey at the time of entry.
