How can you asses if has "shown loyalty" to a country? What does residency have to do with anything?

  What are an individuals demonstrated motivations for emigrating? If not residency, then what does the individual want from the country and what will they provide back to the country in return? A resident, theoretically, contributes to the community through more means than just their taxes. If an individual jumps citizenship as financial protection, or protection from their origin countries investigations into the money they acquired in that country, than their motives for being a citizen isn't loyalty but wealth preservation. Individuals that use Canada as an asset parking lot wont get much, if any, aid from the Canadian government in events like these. They don't deserve it. I'm happier in a world where the ultra-rich don't benefit hugely from paying Canada to launder their money.
