How to become a Canadian citizen

The steps to go from permanent resident to Canadian citizen.

Canadian citizenship holds much significance and meaning for a lot of people. For many, Canadian citizenship is a promise of a better life.

From May 23 to 29 this year, Canada is celebrating Citizenship Week. The Canadian Citizenship Act came into effect on January 1, 1947, under the government of Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King. Since then, the Citizenship Act has been amended to reflect Canada’s values as a multicultural society. The pandemic further pushed innovation in Canadian citizenship by introducing virtual citizenship ceremonies.

Immigration Minister Sean Fraser further elaborated on some of the changes to the Citizenship Act, which are moving toward a more inclusive Canada.
