My French grandmother's family in Canada goes back to the 1630s. My grandfather was First Nations, born outside of Winnipeg. My mother was born in Canada in 1911. Later she moved to the US and in 1930 married a US citizen. After I was born, she became a US citizen. In 2011, my application for my Canadian citizenship certificate was denied. I was told that my mother had lost her status as a British subject when she married my father. She not only was "never a Canadian citizen," but also was…

Hi ,

I'm new at this and I have a few question I would like to ask

does anyone know if my daughter under 18 is a Canadian

citizen through me I'm a Canadian citizen? She was born

in the US and her father is US born. 

I previously donated to Lost Canadians via PayPal. Is this no longer an option?

Hello Al, 

Just received your note requesting donations, but was unable to reply to you using the email address from which it came. As you probably know, Don Chapman has been working for years to change the citizenship act to include all Lost Canadians. With the election having taken place, he now may pursue the matter through the courts. I need to direct my donations to Don's efforts. 

All the best, Judith

Does anyone know how I request a copy of my certificate of birth abroad from the Ontario government?

Thanks.

When the war ended, he had the temerity to pack up and leave for his "other" home leaving my mother with a pail of dirty…
