To: Alberta's Child
Person B's father became a nationalized citizen of the United states in 2005 and was not on a temporary work assignment north of the border. he lived and worked in Canada and was a citizen of Canada and his son was born in full allegiance to Canada and renounced his own Canadian citizenship 9 years after his father when it became clear to him that it would complicate his campaign to be POTUS.

This has nothing to do with Ted Cruz's character which I'm sure is unimpeachable. This is about the law and it's about the reason we have the law. Deeper than that, it's about establishing a precedent for violating this law.

Sorry the confusion ...

Person B wasn't intended to be Ted Cruz. It was just a hypothetical example to make the point.

At the Supreme Court, they call it stare decisis:

Now I know why I bothered to read this 50th thread on Cruz & citizenship. You nailed it.
