[edit] Obsolete law

The Canadian Citizenship Act, 1946 hasn't been in force for thirty years. It was completely superseded by the current Citizenship Act, which took effect on February 15, 1977. The current law was a total rewrite of the older law and drastically changed several things — perhaps most notably in the area of multiple citizenship (the old Canadian law was extremely unfriendly to dual citizenship, but the current law permits it without any restrictions).
