I am British and Canadian (duel citizenship) so I put "other".

This fact is making Korean Immigration's head spin at the moment, which is a story for another day (I hope not).

I'm tri-national...have passports from US (born there), Canada(father) and Ireland(father-grandfather) I'm sure Korean Immigration would go into all sorts of conniptions if they saw 3 different passports in my hand when I enter the country...(my E2 is on my US passport)...maybe I should try that sometime..."Yo! which passport do you need to see?"

No option for me. Northern Irish means I have dual-nationality; British and Irish.

I'd opt for the Irish although I just decided to get a nice new British passport (cheaper and quicker. Just shows how much I care!)

this is kind of surprising poll so far.. particularly since it seems like canadians have such a large or loud voice or something.. yet them seem so under-represented in the poll..

It doesn't seem like I hear much from the rest - americans, british, australia.. and yet there seems to be more than i thought..

Also quite surprised how many 'other' or dual-nationality there is.. quite surprising as well.. 5 already..

Also, no irish people on the poll board yet??

I've got dual citizenship.

Canadian (by birth)
Kiwi (because my dad is one).

Since I've spent most of life in New Zealand (I only spent the first two years of my life in canada) if people ask where I'm from I say New Zealand, but due to my accent most people think I'm from canada.

Now the poll is evening out more.. as I'm seeing more Canadians clicking the Canadian box.. it seems like they have a strong prescense here.. so shocked to see that there are actually more Americans so far..

Also, Australians and UK nationals were higher than Canadian for awhile on the poll.. but it seems like they just clicked on the poll sooner and now their numbers seems to have stabilized a bit lower than the start of this poll..

However, still no Irish?

That's the problem with this board. Too many Americans. They get on here, rag on Canada and get away with it. Canadians criticize Americans and get banned.
