I hadn’t actually considered that. That very likely makes me ineligible actually. Thinking about it like that, I doubt any of my ancestors were ever actually Canadian. I’d forgotten about the fact Canada wasn’t an independent country yet so they wouldn’t qualify and therefore I wouldn’t either.

My mom’s side of the family is all Cajun, which means they came from France, went to Canada, and then settled in Louisiana (where I was born). Considering how long ago all this happened there is likely exactly zero documentation about this. What can I do?
