Since the law kicked in, over 4,000 people have received certificates, with nearly half — 1,955 — hailing from the U.S., followed by Mexico and the U.K. Immigration lawyers are overwhelmed, with one Montreal firm hiring two new staff just to handle the flood of requests, mostly from Americans racing to secure their future. While the government didn’t anticipate this boom, processing backlogs are exploding, with waits stretching to a year or more. This isn’t just paperwork — it’s a rediscovery of identity, revealing how deep and widespread Canada’s roots run across the globe.
