That includes great, great grandparents.

In order to obtain proof of Canadian citizenship, you would need to document your line of descent through historical documents and birth records.

    From the wiki

    “But my parent/grandparent/great-grandparent/etc. left Canada before January 1, 1947 (April 1, 1949 if your line goes back to Newfoundland) / naturalized as a citizen of another country / married a citizen of another country / served in the military of another country.”

    Yes, that’s true for many of us. That does not matter. You can still get a citizenship certificate.
