Alberta Naturalization and CitizenshipEdit This Page From
FamilySearch Wiki Until 1947 British immigrants from England,
Scotland, Wales, and Ireland automatically became citizens of
Canada. So those settling in Alberta did not need
naturalization. Non-British immigrants, however, were required
to make oaths of allegiance before receiving land grants. Files
containing these oaths and petitions for citizenship covering
the years 1817 to 1846 are found at the Provincial Archives.
Records created after 1917 are more detailed than earlier
records and are found at: - Citizenship and Immigration Canada
Public Rights Administration 360 Laurier Ave West 10th floor
Ottawa ON K1A 1L1 For further information concerning
Naturalization, go to the Library and Archives Canada site: -
