That's a tough question. I think it's about identity. Would I let my
citizenship slip away and have to get a visa to visit my family in
the place I was born? I'm not sure. I always said no matter what I
would not give up being Canadian but at the same time I've adopted
Australia as my home and with that want all the rights and
obligations that go with it.
