Did you move?
No, my dad learned that my great-great-grandfather actually landed in Canada before starting a family and moving to the US. So under Canadian law, we'd be granted citizenship with the proper paperwork. We have similar eligibility for Portugal and Italy, and are just being lazy about getting stuff sorted out.
Dude! Move to Portugal!

My grandfather was from Italy. I guess that’s my back up plan.

I'm not a fan of Doug Ford, to put it mildly. But I will admit, he has been fun to watch during this trade war.

I mean, EOs aren't law but completely inundating the courts is definitely a tactic. Many are challenged and I'm fairly certain all go through some judicial review but good lord the American legal system is a slow process. I assume this list will be notated regularly.
