I went here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/citizenship/rules.asp
Then I spoke to my mom, who only naturalized to the US after I was born.
Therefore, I am a Canadian citizen!!!!!

YAY!
Now you have to start saying “…eh?” a lot more. We will be watching. But politely. heee.
When do I get initiated into the sekrit cult???

WOW! WHAT A SURPRISE!!
And without even trying!
> Masq! This is awesome!
Things happen for reasons.
Will you have dual citizenship?
Brings a whole new meaning to the word “eh” –eh?
*giggles*

We’ll have to have a welcome to Canada party when we’re in Washington! Though I can’t decide if that counts as irony or not 😉
Heee. Wait for the email. *looks shifty*
Yes, it is dual citizenship, since I was born in the US to a US citizen.
Oh, there’s a certain amount of irony, but we will not burn the White House or anything bad like that. We will just drink lots of Molsen and you will smuggle in some Tim Horton’s and Canadian candy.

Welcome to Canuckstanihood
Woo!!! Canada!
You are so, so lucky.
I have to admit, I’m a bit jealous.
Have to admit, there were moments during the last administration I would have found this factoid tempting.
I still need to apply for proof of citizenship, and the link’s broke.
My grandparents would be so pleased!
Do I get a tattoo or a badge?
Neat.
Hee!
Congratulations, eh?
Take off. Beauty.
I think this applies to Soulfulspike as well, too. Her parents are/were both Canadian.
Now that you’re official, can you get me some Tim Bits?
You think they ship them from internet orders?
I thought when you became a Canadian citizen they let you know where the top-secret local Tim Horton’s are.
Sekrit subversive Tim Horton’s in Phoenix! Corrupting America one bit at a time!
Whoohoo!
Party at Timmy’s!!
Eh?
I could always tell!
Does it show?
::checks for marks::
You buying the coffee and donuts?
It glows from within!
The red, red, glow of Canuckistanship.
Awww, congrats. That’s awesome. I admit, I’m slightly jealous. (Like most twentysomething American Democrats who’ve never really been there, I think of Canada as a glorious utopia of gay rights and socialized healthcare. Of course I’m jealous. :-))
It’s a tad cold, but I think I could handle Vancouver. I have relatives there.
Lucky you! Wish it was like Dreamwidth and you could send us invites.
Remember us when you escape…
Escape? I’m just taking a quick jaunt over the border to visit friends and relatives. Really, officer.
Now you have to be nice all the time!!!!!!!!!!

So I hear.
Just remember if someone bumps into you it’s now your duty to apologize.
(p.s. we’ll send you the notes on the sekrit invasion plan soon)
As if I don’t apologize already? I *have* been half-Canadian my whole life!
Mazel tov! Does this make you a RetConadian? @>)
Pretty much.
Welcome to the club!
I’m also a dual American-Canadian citizen, in the exact opposite way as you– Canadian born, American mother.
Woo hoo! You could move and get married and everything in Canada! Well, if you wanted too…:)
I like having options.
; D
W00t!!
