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In order to obtain proof of Canadian citizenship, you would need to document your line of descent through historical documents and birth records.

    My relatives from Canada are like 6 or more generations back, is that too far?

      Technically no, though you need to show some documentation of that lineage. The most straightforward way would be through birth or baptismal records. Otherwise, some have suggested census and immigration records can work.

      You can find a lot of documents on sites like ancestry and similar.

        Yeah, it’s all documented on ancestry thanks to one of my cousins. This makes me very happy 💜
