“Senator Cruz’s position is: ‘Because I was a U.S. citizen at birth, because I left Calgary when I was 4 and have lived my entire life since then in the U.S., and because I have never taken affirmative steps to claim Canadian citizenship, I assumed that was the end of the matter.’ This contradicts the position of the U.S. government. Let me clarify by asking a question. Q. What if Mr. Cruz had been born in the United States and left at the age of four for Canada and never ‘claimed’ his U.S. citizenship? A. The U.S. would take the position that he was a U.S. citizen whether he ‘claimed his citizenship’ or not. It would then assert direct rights of ownership and abuse over him.”
