""These documents confirm you were a Canadian citizen, but you ceased being a Canadian citizen on June 14, 1960, the day following your 24th birthday," a letter from Citizenship and Immigration read."
I'd sue for my 40 some years of takes back. |

Man, and I thought some of our laws were screwed up.  Who in their right mind whould even come up with a law like that, it serves no purpose. This is why I live in the United States where our lawmakers always make decisions grounded in common sense and are looking after our best interests.......wait a minute..... -------------  Join the XP Re-Revolution!

This is definitely a goof, and will be resolved by parliament, likely with a retroactive legislation amendment.

It's an old law. They probably did not anticipate this until some computer went ape on them at the passport office.
