Traveling as a brand new citizen without a passport?

I have my citizenship ceremony tomorrow which is amazing after all the work and time that it took to get to this point. One thing though that has me worried, during the ceremony we will be cutting up our permanent residency cards but I won’t have my citizenship certificate for a couple of weeks and then after that I will need to apply for a passport which could take months from what I hear with delays.
So my question is how do you travel during this weird interim period? As of now I don’t have any travel plans for awhile but I’m worried about something like a family emergency.

Wrong section of the forum. Post to the Citizenship section.
