I am currently a dual citizen (British & Irish) and I plan to apply for Canadian citizenship after C-6 (3/5 rule) is implemented. I am under the impression there will be no issue having all of these citizenship while gaining Canadian citizenship (3 in total)?

For the current Canadian citizenship application do I have do complete any additional paperwork or do I just scan both passports in the application pack? Will being a dual citizen likely slow down the application process.

Thanks in advance

There is no problem as far as Canada is concerned in having multiple citizenships.

There is no extra paperwork and having dual citizenship should not delay your application. Yes, just scan the biographical pages of both passports.

You see. I wish China would be able to recognize dual citizenship. It cost extra to apply for working visa in China. Even if you get married, it takes 5 years to gain citizenship. Either way, it is not encourage to travel between these two countires. I regret getting my Canadian citizenship, I wish I would still choose to be Chinse instead.

Currently, I am a Canadian working in China. I have decided to renounce my Canadian citizenship. In fact, I think I want to stay in China for the rest of my life if fingers crossed there are no wars or disaster. I do not feel I fit in the Canadian culture. My family had a culture shock when first landing in Canada. I have different opinion on keep Canadian citizenship if your spouse has Chinese citizenship. blaa blaa blaa. First, I think I might like Canada better when I retire, but in fact , I love everything perfectly as is in China.
