1947, actually. Prior to this there were no Canadian citizens, we were all British Subjects. IIRC In 1977 the law was changed so that we are no longer British Subjects.

Another Presidential aspirant who is a natural-born British subject? What are the odds?

________________________________________

In New Zealand it was about a year later...

I was born British in Dec 1948

One month later in Jan 1949 my mother had my birth registered and lo and behold

I was given a New Zealand birth certificate..

Years later though when I applied for a New Zealand passport I was told I could also get a British passport because of my birth date...prior to Jan 1948...

I didnt understand the significance at the time and thought it very odd and opted for the NZ passport...

Did I have dual citizenship ??

I dont know..
