Canada's new citizenship law (Bill C-3 passed, early March 2026) dictates that if your grandparent, great-grandparent or great GREAT grandparent was born/spent significant time in Canada, you are now automatically a Canadian citizen and can apply for dual citizenship. You do NOT have to move to Canada to do so.

How do I apply?

First you must gather as much documentation as you can - birth, death, marriage, immigration and any other records showing a direct relative spent significant time in CA. First source documents are imperative, meaning photocopies or internet downloads won't cut it; you'll likely need to travel to CA to procure them. You can hire an immigration lawyer for much of this (especially if you live far away) or do your own research and collection. Once the documents have been accepted and your citizenship verified (current wait time is 10 months) you will receive your passport and dual citizenship status.

If you have or can find relatives from further back - as far back as possible! - you can still apply, but the process may be more time-consuming.

While partners and spouses can't take immediate advantage of the program, you having citizenship will pave the way for them to apply in turn.

Faerie Haven by Devajoy Gouss & Julie Jumper

this staged affection, a mix of theatricality and intimacy, the couple holding still for a couple of moments and now immortalised in a very set sequence of embraces and kisses. there is a charm to it even when I can’t tell whether this was a genuine couple portait or just actors hired by the photographer.

let us start with the kiss on the cheek (eyes averted! oh the pose! these were taken between 1910-1940)

or the nearly opposite energy (how daring!) of the kiss or caress with direct eye contact (1910-1930)

and then the innocent – yet so flirty – classic of the park encounter! (1890-1920)

and oh, I am not done, look at this – the adoration of the woman! look at this expression, this pose, this decorum! (1910-1940)

and then some of my favourites from the more playful or direct category, enjoy (1910-1930):
