Canadian Citizenship: Australian Parents

canadian citizenship: I have lived my life thinking that as a baby I was naturalized to be Australian and only Australian, and my parents told me that I had until age 21 to actively seek Canadian citizenship, according to CBC. At 21, I chose not to seek dual citizenship, and I have never even visited Canada since leaving at 11 months old, the statement read. Larissa Waters, who represented the Greens, said in a statement she was born in Winnipeg in 1977 to Australian parents who were briefly studying in Canada. It is with a heavy heart that I am resigning as Senator for Qld and Co-Deputy Leader of the Australian Greens. https //t.co/DuplaZPi2h larissawaters Waters, who was also a co-deputy leader of the party, looked into the status of her citizenship after another senator from the Greens resigned last week under the same circumstances. Australia's constitution states that a citizen of a foreign power is not eligible to be elected to Parliament. Scott Ludlam, also a co-deputy leader, had recently discovered he also had New Zealand citizenship. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
