Just a cursory review shows this about Cruz Sr., not Senator Ted Cruz.
Cruz decided to move to New Orleans to take a new job, which is where he met his second wife, Eleanor Darragh, a computer programmer from Delaware, who was also working for an oil company. They married, moved to Calgary, Alberta, and in late 1970 had their first and only child, Rafael Edward Cruz. They weren’t in Canada long, choosing to move to Houston, where they continued to work for oil companies. He became a Canadian citizen while working there, he says, but it never felt like home. Back in Texas, he became a permanent legal resident, and it wasn’t until 2005 that he formally became a U.S. citizen.

The campaign claims Darragh went to Canada in 1967. When did Rafael go to Canada? When did he become a Can. cit.
According to your post they married and then went to Canada. For sake of discussion let’s say Rafael also went in 1967. The earliest he could have become a Can. cit. would have been 1972. He left Canada in 1973. Become a citizen and then leave? (Darragh and “Ted” returned in 1974). Why would the father become a Canadian citizen and not the mother?
My only point is there should be no murkiness, yet there is, and it’s laughed off. Meanwhile he continues to make ludicrous assertions.
