If the child is born in Canada, then it is a Canadian citizen forever, unless s/he renounves citizenship in the future.  Canadian passports are valid for 5 years.  You should also check with the Indian consul regarding the childs status if you go to India, since India as yet does not recognize dual citizenship and you probably will require a visa for the child.
