-Until 1947, British immigrants from England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland automatically became citizens of Canada. They did not need naturalization. Since about 1850, the office of the Secretary of State has kept the naturalization records for Canada. Many records before 1917 were lost or burned. See the Canada Research Outline (34545) for a detailed explanation.
