There is so much we don’t know. What we do know seems to hinge mostly on Cruz having all the facts and accurately conveying them. But this is a person who didn’t even know he held Canadian citizenship. What other facts is he in error about?
Do we know exactly what years Cruz’ mother spent in England? I’m no expert, but isn’t there a rule on the mother needing to reside in the US a certain number of years before the child is born? Between her time in England and Canada, does the mother meet this requirement?
If the parents headed to Canada sooner than we’ve been told, they could have acquired citizenship sooner. What is the proof of their departure date from the US? Are we just taking someone’s word for it, or is there corroborating evidence?
Doesn’t the word ‘native’ mean born in a particular place? For example, I am a native of FL; I was born there. Hard to believe we’ve come to the place of believing a native-born Canadian is a NBC of the US.

I’ll check on the England thing. Maybe something will turn up.
