Does Canada do duel citizenship?

I live in America... It would be interesting to be able to roam freely up north as well.

  • It will take you nearly seven years to get Canadian citizenship, even if your application is accepted.

  • A duel is when two people shoot at each other. That was outlawed in the U.S. in the early 1800s by the states themselves (look it up) and has nothing to do with citizenship.

    Canada allows multiple citizenship; in fact, of all 195 countries on this planet, Canada has the most relaxed attitude toward it, as it not only recognizes dual citizenship, but doesn't even require its citizens to leave and to enter Canada with a Canadian passport. That's unique in the world, meaning that people who are U.S. and Canadian citizens don't even need a Canadian passport, ever.

    You, however, are so far away from obtaining Canadian citizenship, that I think you are really jumping the gun here.

  • No, they don't give you citizenship based on dueling. Sorry, I couldn't resist.

    If you want dual citizenship, it's possible, but you first have to figure out how to get it. They don't yet sell it at Walmart...
