As far as I know, the most you can hold is 2 citizenships...if you get a new one, you lose one...

All depends on what the other country's policies are. If you're a Canadian citizen, you can only have citizenship to one other country. If you're a German for example, you can only hold 1 citizenship, that being German.

No I don't think so since you are a Canadian Citizen

I thought 2 was the max too, I guess not. I have Dual-Citizenship so I'm guessing if you are a Canadian Citizen this doesn't apply to you.

They ended the dual citizenships due to people using them for taking advantage of the governemt funded education (in Germany your education is paid for).

Also, if you have dual citizenship with Germany you are obligated to a mandatory 9 months military service

That's a good point actually, a lot of people would return there simply to do the free university education.

i just searched and can't find any info about the whole voting thing.... oh wellz.

another question since we're on the whole citizenship topic:
as a citizen, how long are you allowed outside of Canada?

is it 6months maximum?

If you're a Canadian citizen traveling to another country? All depends on the other country's visitation laws.

.... No. As far as I know, there are no laws saying you can't stay over a certain period of time outside the country. If you had a dual citizenship for example, you could go live in the other country for years, and still apply for a Canadian passport.

The reason there are no laws is because just about every other country in the world has their own visitor / immigration laws, so there's no need for Canada to have it's own for it's own citizens.

Example: you can only spend 6 months in most european countries at a time, as a visitor, and you can't exceed... 8 months or something a year.

This way, Canada doesn't really need their own "living / visiting abroad" laws.
