No Fly List Kids Legislation (Canada)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unwarranted content fork from National Security Act 2017. While Bill C-59 did include some updates to the process of accountability and redress for people who are prevented from travelling because of mistaken name matches to the No Fly List, those were neither exclusive to children nor the primary purpose of the legislation -- it was an omnibus update to many aspects of Canadian security and anti-terrorism legislation, not a law about kids on the no-fly list per se. Rather, this article is actually a semi-essay being written to subjectively and non-neutrally praise the efforts of an external group that lobbied on the issue of kids getting wrongly matched to the No Fly List as part of the C-59 process, not a neutral article about the actual overall legislation. The sourcing here is also not adequate to make this lobbying effort independently notable as a separate topic from the actual legislation -- two of the four footnotes are just the government's own primary source documentation of the legislation, not coverage of this, and a third is a news article about the best-known child-flagging incident, which doesn't speak to the notability of this lobbying effort as it predates this lobbying effort. Which means there's only one footnote that's actually about the topic, and that's not enough. Bearcat (talk) 21:50, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Merge with National Security Act 2017. Walter Görlitz (talk) 21:53, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete, the article borders on WP:OR. I would support merging per Walter Görlitz, but I don't see much in the nominated article that would transfer well into National Security Act 2017.   PK  T (alk)  16:08, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - I could support a merge if there were anything worth merging but there isn't. -- Whpq (talk) 16:03, 8 February 2020 (UTC)
