She'll be a dual citizen whether or not she maintains her Canadian passport. If it expired she can go and get another one. I expect she has other citizenships too though the probably doesn't pay attention to them.

She's keen to learn about investing.

If she is smart she will move her residence to Monte Carlo.

I wonder if she is smart enough to have NEXUS?

My granddaughter has an immigrant parent and immigrant grandparents (us). ER is a very accomplished young lady. She is a credit to all her nationalities…not just British.
you must have skipped over post #2

Post 2 doesn't criticize her amazing win. It argues that her amazing win is independent of her nationality as she's a multinational. It advances the idea that nationality isn't a reasonable criterion to categorize athletes, except perhaps for skiers, as they don't achieve or not achieve because of their current passport and many people, athletes or not, change their nationality over time.

I wonder what would happen if she took the knee or offered an opinion on school lunches for deprived kids.

Meanwhile in Canada the runner-up is being celebrated for being the child of immigrants. Fundamental difference.

And an uppity one at that, no doubt. I'd love it if she took the knee just to see how quickly Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage backtracked on their congrats.

Can't understand why you need to shoot bullets at her parents origins and ethnicity. Is this High school?
This is one of greatest achievements of ANY sport. The kid just finished her A-levels 4 weeks before the US tournament and blew away the opposition.
its magnified by the fact that its the first British girl since the 70s. That's the point you can't deal with and hurts you somehow? Unbelievable you've turned this into a race debate.
JerseyGirl you can go ahead close the thread now.
