Apologies if this type of question gets posted a lot!
Having visited Canada numerous times on a British passport to see cousins, I've discovered I may be eligible for citizenship by descent. My grandmother was born in Ontario, married a Scottish soldier there (my grandfather) and migrated to Britain just before WWI. She died in 1951.
Am I able to claim Canadian citizenship through my grandmother? Are my children/grandchildren also able to claim? All of us were born before 2009 when the laws last significantly changed. I've read various conflicting information about this and would like some advice, so thanks in advance for your help! I understand it can be quite complex, but all I'm looking for is a general 'yes/no' to see whether it's worth submitting an application.
