Does any other country than USA automatically grant citizenship people born on their soil? As opposed to what I assume is the norm, that citizenship is inherited?

there was that dude who was born canadian because he was delivered on a playing flying over canada

So Canada have the same laws regarding citizenship?

ye

I'm pretty sure most westernized countries do

just soli citizenship is a result of the 14th amendment

which applies only in the US and Canada among advanced economies

I was getting uncertain, so I googled it. According to wikipedia, citizenship granted by being birth in the country is originally english/british. In continental europe you inherit the same citizenship as your parrents, disregard the country of birth.

it is, like freedom of speech, rather atypical

You don't even need to be born in Canada to be a citizen, just as long as you have one Canadian parent grants your citizenship

citizenship through parents is the predominant structure globally

Many Chinese take advantage of this

So now I assume it is demarcated roughly along the lines of the judicial system of common law (british and past colenies) and civil law (continental europe)

citizenship by birth in the US is not a common law structure

it stems from the 14th amendment

I think the UK even requires parental citizenship

I have no idea where the british source idea comes from

Canada has been having a problem with people moving to Vancouver for that very reason

oh yeah

It eas just an observation on my part, countries that have adopted the common-law legal system also allow for citizenship for birth within its borders. Countries that have adopted the civil-law legal system are exclusive in citizenship to inherited only almost.

> countries that have adopted the common law legal system also allow for citizenship for birth

how so?

If you are born in any continental european country you do not automatically get a citizenship in that country. You are considered a foreigner.

Then you can apply for citizenship like any other

I am wrong in my perception in how citizenship is granted in north america?

If I understand you correctly, u automatically get citizenship if you're born within US/Canada borders

Yes, that is my question

My mom was illegal my dad was a American

I was a automagical citizen

Photoshopped, hand is obviously fake

orange juice: pulp or no pulp?

No pulp

If i wanted orange soup with chunks i would have asked for it that way

orange soup with chunks sounds good

Hmmm orange stew i mean

Canada, anyone born on soil in hospital is declared citizen. If parents are citizens, the child is also one if born out of state for at least 1 generation.
There was/is a major issue in canada with vacationing pregnant women
