Case Study
Jane lives in the United States and is eight months pregnant. A screening at her doctor's office reveals that her unborn daughter has a genetic predisposition to a medical condition that is likely to require considerable medical care beginning in young adulthood. Jane is distressed about this news, as the personal costs of medical care in the United States can be staggering. She worries that her child will reach adulthood only to be saddled with such enormous healthcare costs that she will be unable to afford to live a good life.
As her due date approaches, Jane makes plans to stay with a friend in Toronto. Her plan is to give birth in Canada so that her baby will be a Canadian citizen. She plans to return to the United States to raise her daughter shortly after giving birth. Canadian citizens are eligible for free, publicly funded healthcare, so Jane's objective is to ensure that if her child needs extensive medical care as an adult, she will have the option to move to Canada to receive this care for free.
-If things go according to plan, Jane's baby will have dual citizenship. Should individuals be permitted to be citizens of more than one country?
