Why couldn't even I (born in NC to parents and several grnparents all born in NC) become a Canadian citizen? ('Cept I've shoveled more than my share of snow and don't want it; otherwise I would consider it quite an honor.) ;<)

But you said there was "no way" for him to be Canadian.
If he renounced Canadian citizenship, then one would think he had it to give it up, and I assume like Mexicans who like to have their children in the USA, if one is born here, one is likely able to claim citizenship.

Theres a great Maine joke the punchline of which is "If your cat had kittens in the oven would you call them biscuits?" He's American because his parents were there temporarily with no intention of becoming Canadian citizens or permanent residents. So technically he's an "American born abroad" like so many children of active servicepersons.

    Why is there no way for him to be Canadian if he was born in Canada?
Both of my sons were born here to a mother who is a US citizen but do
not qualify for dual citizenship via their mother because she left the
USA before she attained the age of majority even though she is still an
American citizen and has never obtained dual citizenship. She is a
permanent resident of Canada but not a Canadian citizen.

Oddly enough, my sons could apparently apply for US citizenship through
my wife's parents even though my father in law is deceased and my mother
in law obtained Canadian citizenship and thus has dual citizenship.

It wouldn't matter, to be president you'd have to be a natural born citizen. Which he probably is, his mother is American, his dad is Cuban, theres really no way for him to be Canadian... Still its fun to pick on the idiots who questioned Obama's citizenship.

     He renounced his Canuck citizenship a while back.

Hold on!  Cruz is a Canadian.

His mama was from below the 49th, but his dad was some wetback from pirates of the Caribbean.
