My Grandfather is Canadian, do I still qualify as second generation? Just
wondering, would have been cool to have dual citizenship since we're
neighboring countries and all hehehe.

If I read this correctly, I should have applied last year because I'm no
longer eligible right?

On April 17, 2009, the law changed for people born outside Canada. It limits
Canadian citizenship to the *first generation of children born outside
Canada to Canadian citizens*. This means:

   - a child born outside Canada in the second or subsequent generation *
   after* the new law comes into effect will not become a Canadian citizen
   automatically at birth, and
   - a person born in the second or subsequent generation outside Canada *
   before* the new law comes into effect *and who is not already a
citizen*will not become a citizen under the new law.
