    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.

      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.
