Even more fun. He said he applied for a visa, to use on his Russian passports. Canadian citizens are ineligible to get visas, as they are not needed. So just by him getting a visa indicates the Canadian government views him as not Canadian.<p>Had the same thing with my kids. Born to me (Canadian). So instant citizenship. But to travel I&#x27;ve got to get their Canadian passports, which requires other docs, including the passport from their other country of citizenship. I asked if I already had that other passport, could she apply for a visa? Nope, she&#x27;s a Canadian citizen, even if there is no documentation other than a birth certificate with a (naturally born) Canadian parent on it. They had quite a look of enjoyment as they explained I&#x27;d have to do double the work for zero benefit.
