Citizenship And Immigration: Oath Of Citizenship

Nicaraugua Dept: The special ceremony in honour of Canada Day took place on the front lawn of the legislative building, according to CBC. "We don't expect our citizens to blend in right away," said Gill. "We want them to celebrate our diversity and that is what Canada gives us the opportunity we can be individuals but we can be all Canadians." Thirty new Canadians from 27 countries took the oath of citizenship at Queen's Park in Toronto on Friday.
