Should American born people be allowed to receive the Order of Canada honorary title?

Munsch holds duel citizenship therefore he is Canadian. Additionally, non-Canadians have been awarded the Order and the rules of the Order allow for that.

18 non Canadian born people have received the Order of Canada, of which 7 were US American born. Frankly, I don't see why not.

First of all Robert Munsch is a Canadian, as well as an American. The charter of the Order of Canada allows for the nomination of non-Canadians, either for achievement that reflects honour on Canada or for contributions to humanity at large. Nelson Mandela and John Kenneth Galbraith are just a few of the Non-Canadians who have received this honor. http://archive.gg.ca/honours/nat-ord/oc/oc-info_e.asp

If they make a significant contribution to Canada, why not. We are close neighbours and friends, many Canadians have received similar honours in the US.

Yeah sure, why not. The only thing you need to be a native-born citizen for is US President, and the Order of Canada is nowhere near as lofty as being elected to the White House. So it's just not a big deal. And really, did the Beebz win a music award in the States? Wow... sorry about that, America! My condolences.

Probably not, yet Justin Bieber won many American music awards, so who knows.

He's a Canadian citizen & has been living in Canada since 1970s.

Robert Munch was born in the United States, but has become a Canadian citizen, and has given up his american citizenship. He he is fully entitled to receive an order of Canada as any Canadian is.

some people have dual citizenship.
