Not completely true. Permanent residents can, for example, be stripped of their PR status for committing crimes and are required to carry evidence of their PR status at all times.
But in any case, wrt anything that concerns immigration matters (which visas fall under), there is most definitely not equal treatment.
- nkassis 16y agoYeah that's true but you have to be found guilty first, they can't just (I hope) pick you up and put you on a plane without a trial of some sort or a valid reason that can be challenged in court (If you are a PR, that is or a visa holder).
- wan23 16y agoEven American citizens can be stripped of their basic rights after being convicted of a crime.
- lutorm 16y agoTrue, but not their citizenship (although there's been suggestions of that to deal with "terrorists").
