is it wiser to have baby born in USA or Canada..pls help

But the child should be able to apply a Hong Kong Special Administrative Region passport because it was born there and has Chinese descent, even though the father was a foreigner.

Basically that is true (with some exceptions, I think for diplomats and soldiers or so). There are a number of cases where children of Canadian parents have been born stateless (like a baby born in Brussels to a Canadian father and a Syrian (IIRC) mother - no Syrian citizenship because that country had not approved the marriage beforehand and no Belgian citizenship either). Or where they ended up with some weird citizenship neither of their parents had (I remember a child born in Hongkong to a Canadian father and a Chinese mother who ended up with an Irish citizenship because one of the grandparents was Irish - the Chinese wouldn't give Chinese citizenship because the father was a foreigner, and the Canadians wouldn't give citizenship because the father had been born outside Canada). The CBC Radio highlighted some of these cases last year.

This new law creates a lot of problems.

Sponsoring your own child to immigrate to your home country is silly. It is difficult and there is no guarantee that it will be accepted. Plus, until then the Canadian government doesn't provide any services as this person is not Canadian. Sucks.

In Canada, every provincial government arranges their own health insurance coverage. So every province are different in their waiting period for basic health insurance coverage.

Whichever country, make sure giving birth is covered by the insurance! That was good advice!
