Here's my scenario: I'm a dual citizen (US/CND) and have lived in Canada almost my entire life, but have a SS number and US passport.

Hi All,


All the Canadians have seem to have gone to Melbourne. Are there any in Sydney? Last year there was something going on for Canada Day at Victoria Bar in North Sydney, but there doesn't seem to be anything on this year. Anyone know of anything?
