Hi


1. C-24 or the SCCA will have no effect on birth in Canada. As long as neither parent is a diplomat, then a child born in Canada is a Canadian citizen.


Hi PMM,

Thank you so much for your reply.

One more question if you dont mind isn't in this bill it is also included to stop citizenship by birth if the parents are non resident or citizen of canada?

Thank you so much.

Only if the parents are diplomats or employed by foreign embassy. Other than that, regardless of status of parents, the child will have citizenship if born in Canada.

Hi

I have seen many articles about the birth tourism. I thought with the Bill C 24 which will be implemented in end of June 2015, birth on soil will not be anymore for non residents and tourists. From where do you have your information? Thank you

The bill doesn't target birth tourism. A new bill would be needed to address that.

Hi

I have a question. I am Canadian Citizen since 2009 and I also have citizenship of my birth country (Dual Citizenship)

I had problem and convicted a crime like as drug trafficking and possession in 2011 and and got my sentence 2013 like as 1 day less than 2 years house arrest. 1 year house arrest and 1 year curfew + 100 hours community work... I know its bad, It was bad friendship connection and just 1 mistake !!!! Because I was in wrong time in wrong place :(:(:(

I have a life here and family I am just afraid to loose them. If CIC get my citizenship away and deport me my birth country...

I read the law is affecting at the moment for terrorism and spying and national defence act. etc etc. It does not apply to me....

But is there a way in the future they can expanded the list and include my crime in it too ?

And other question, If I renounce my birth citizenship, Could they still revoke my Canadian citizenship ?

Thank you for your answers

You got nothing to worry about. Unless the conviction you have is terrorism, treason or immigration fraud. So you won't lose your citizenship over it.
