Although Canada restricted dual citizenship between 1947 and 1977, there were some situations where Canadians could nevertheless legally possess another citizenship. For example, migrants becoming Canadian citizens were not asked to formally prove that they had ceased to hold the nationality of their former country. Similarly children born in Canada to non-Canadian parents were not under any obligation to renounce a foreign citizenship they had acquired by descent. Holding a foreign passport did not in itself cause loss of Canadian citizenship. Wikipedia

You need to go and read the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 in regards to Ted's mother. Until evidence is given otherwise, there is no legal evidence that Betty Cruz personally & formally contacted the US State Dept and renounced her US citizenship, therefore, Betty Cruz being a ‘natural born’ US citizen, no act on the part of any government can remove that status form her. She has to do it of her own volition.
