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.Originally posted by Melinda

No I don't think so since you are a Canadian CitizenOriginally posted by JAYMEZ_STi

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.Originally posted by Melinda

i thought commonwealth citizenships are carryover citizenships....
you can move to britain and be on their voting list last i remembered.
brit=canadian=australian(?)

im not sure about voting through out the commonwealth, but it is easier to get citizenship if your currently holding a commonwealth passport (generally a sign of citizenship)

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).Originally posted by link785

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.Originally posted by sputnik

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.Originally posted by thich

dang it....... blaaaaaaaaah.
so it has nothing to do with Canadian laws then?
Banned
.... 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.Originally posted by thich

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.
