She didn't. Her mother was able to get it through her mother, but that didn't apply to Gilles. Someone here kindly explained this at the time.
Confirmed here:
According to the CIC news release,
I know the questions my husband had to answer when getting his. Does Deanna's husband not still live in the US?@marbri - why are you so certain that Deanna won't maintain ties to Canada or Skate Canada post-2026?
So I stumbled upon a petition someone started for Deanna to get citizenship and it got me wondering. What exactly is her status in Canada? Does she have permanent resident status and if so how long has she had it?
Trying to find the information myself, I couldn't, I did learn that this month is five years since she announced her split with Nathan. And then I wonder how much time did you spend outside of Canada with her husband when everything was locked down during covid? Makes me wonder if she is going to get the time required in. My husband could not apply until he fulfilled the residency requirement post receiving his PR status. And that was someone with a Canadian wife and two children with dual citizenship.
Basically I am curious when is she qualified to actually apply for citizenship? Because it's one thing to pull out an application to the top of the pile but another if she isn't yet qualified to apply. With all the cute asides to Trudeau or people starting petitions, just curious how realistic this actually is.
To be clear I would LOVE for Max (and Deanna) to make it to the Olympics but I also want to know if it's even something to bother hoping for.
I put in the link as a reference.I wasn't disagreeing regarding Kaitlyn.
It was more complex than a single change by Harper. Many of the rules are older ones, and some are in response to the time when at least the US required US citizens to choose one or the other. I haven't had any luck searching the archives to find the response that explained it in detail.At some point during that time it was changed to only first generation born abroad to Canadian citizens so it one of my friends was only able to get citizenship for one of their grandchildren and not the rest.
The only way that the changes would have helped her in a standard application is if she had the type of visa before getting PR status that allows her to count some of the time before she was a PR towards her residency, and that period went back an extra year. Currently the rules are residency in three of five years vs. three of four years under Harper. That change would have helped me greatly, but she's got a hard deadline. Average processing time for an application is currently 14 months.And Trudeau reversed some of the bs changes Harper made to the path to citizenship during the years both girls got theirs so I guess there is hope for Deanna.

This is awesome - I need to watch the whole show now.
Last season Homick and Haubrich won silver medals as a junior pair in Oberstdorf, Germany, but due to changes in ISU rules, 17 is now the minimum age to compete internationally in senior. That means Homick, 15, is too young. And Haubrich, 21, is too old to compete in junior.
“Last year was super, super exciting to be able to do the internationals,” said Homick. “Obviously this year it was a little disappointing because you gain so much experience internationally and you learn so much about yourselves and from other judges around the world, but I do think it will be good for us to have that time to focus on ourselves and focus on us building as a team.”
“It was a little bit of a shock at the beginning of the season when we heard about the rule change, but at the end of the day this season was going to be a building one for us anyways,” said Haubrich.

Sigh. Well. I guess that’s a definitive answer to Bombardier doing pairs full time. I’ll miss her in singles although she’s likely making the right decision. (Although I did see an interview where her mother very adamantly wanted Fiona to pursue interests outside of skating and go to university - wonder how that conversation about switching went.)Yes thank you
I can’t imagine hearing your kid who wants to switch to pairs is an easy conversation, especially if you were hoping she would not make skating her focus. I say this as a Josee fan who can’t believe she has an adult kid.That conversation could be why she won't try to do both.
Hasn't she said the opposite in some interviews i.e. that she is interested in being a technical controller or judge once she's done competing? She also did get divorced at some point within the last couple of years so maybe she'll just stay in Montreal after all the years spent training there...@marbri - why are you so certain that Deanna won't maintain ties to Canada or Skate Canada post-2026?
She what???Hasn't she said the opposite in some interviews i.e. that she is interested in being a technical controller or judge once she's done competing?

Apparently so. It was mentioned on TSL at the beginning of the season. I think she literally did not see her husband for almost two years because of the covid lockdowns. She never spoke about him so it would have been weird to make a big announcement about a divorce imo. It reminds me of how some people were surprised when Kurt remarried because they didn't know he was divorced for years. lol Going through a legal divorce and name change is probably an extra complication she didn't need while trying to obtain citizenship in Canada.Did Deanna divorce? So it’s now Stellato and not Stellato-Dudek? Sort of a sad story, after all (big picture…not just skating).
Still a rumor at this point: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/th...uble-salchow-club.110748/page-10#post-6590848Any word on Brooke McIntosh and what her plans are?
