Citizenship (Becoming Canadian)

Each year, Canada sees a quarter of a million immigrants become new Canadian citizens.

The oath of citizenship is the culmination of a long journey including security and health checks, learning about Canada's geography and history, its languages, and of the rights and responsibilities of being a citizen.  New citizens are a key part of building a stronger Canada.
