It has been proven that Cruses mother had the appropriate residency requirement at the time of his birth to immediately bestow citizenship.
........................................................
Not arguing about “Citizenship” IF indeed, Cruz’s mother had not relinquished her American citizenship for Canadian citizenship when her husband was a Canadian citizen and they were living in Canada. Assuming she remained American then Cruz IS an American Citizen, however he is NOT a Natural Born Citizen according to Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution, ratified in 1791. ONLY Natural born Citizens (BOTH parents American at the time of his birth) can be president.
IOW Trees are plants, but not all plants are trees.

I don't think Cruz's father was ever a citizen of Canada. He did wait a long time before becoming a naturalized citizen of the US but until then I think he was a citizen of Cuba.

Canada gives citizenship to those born on its soil--Ted Cruz may not have been aware of having dual citizenship until someone pointed it out to him. He then relinquished his claim to Canadian citizenship.

Did Obama ever renounce his Indonesian citizenship?
