No kidding?? That’s huge news! Honestly, thank you so much for letting me know!
How familiar are you with the process? Can I ask you if my line qualifies? If so, this is what it looks like: Me -> F -> GM -> GGM. My GGM was born in Canada, GM born in the states in 1935, GGM naturalized in 1942.
I’m very familiar with the Italian citizenship by descent process, so I know the edge cases around that, but not for Canada. Are there any hidden exceptions that would disqualify someone with my line? They happen a lot for Italy.
Honestly, I’m so glad you made this post! If this works, I’ll need to thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Yeah, I think you qualify. You can read more here on the CanadianCitizenship subreddit about the process. Lots of people are gathering documents and submitting for proof of citizenship. It’s a good place to ask questions.

The edge cases I’ve heard where you wouldn’t qualify were based on an ancestor renouncing their Canadian citizenship on the record when becoming a citizen elsewhere.
