Im confused why they would ever be stateless, Its not like they would lose their US citizenship, so they still wouldnt be stateless.
Yeah there are multiple ways to do this i dont even understand how it was a question. Transfer of the territory and giving residency/citizenship to the people on it would have to happen simultaniously. Its not like they would do one, drag their heels on it for 30 years and then the other.
Because they’re from a place that’s (now) Canada, not the US. I mean, you could look at it either way.
You’d have to include provisions to stop them from being deported the same way other permanent residents can, but it could be done.

I was kind of thinking it would be a swap situation. Like, if they’re just a US citizen they’d be just a Canadian citizen afterwards.
The more I think about it the more unlikely that seems, though.
