Prior to Bill C-3, An Act to Amend the Citizenship Act (2025), citizenship by descent for those born abroad was limited to the first generation.

But now, Canadian citizenship is being retroactively granted to people born before the new law came into effect on Dec. 15, 2025, who would have been citizens if not for the first-generation limit. Different criteria, however, apply to those born on or after that date.

        Link? Do all your thoughts have web pages? Are the thoughts that don’t wrong? Since you’re taking this tone, I’m guessing you’re a fed simp and a magat. I’ll let you enjoy being ignorant.

            Lmfao, read the news, grandpa. He’s literally saying what he’s going to do. It’s not subtle. You just aren’t paying attention and expect everyone to hand you an article you can refuse to believe.

            You’re not doing great. You’re the problem.
