Is a child born in Canada with both parents Canadians who were adopted at one year by a USA couple a Canadian citizen?

Good question. At one time the USA supported dual citizenship but not anymore. I was born in West Germany by American parents and have this designation. I would speak to the Canadian consulate and ask about this. I would think that a child born in Canada would be a Canadian citizen irregardless of the fact they were adopted. Same goes for illegal aliens in the US. They may be here illegally yet if their child is born in the states becomes an automatic US citizen.

If illegal immigrants have a child born in the US are the parents also citizens of the US?

No. Having a child in the United States does NOT affect the parent's immigration status. Once the child is 21, that child can petition for the parent to be given a green card, but the mere fact of an illegal having children who are US citizens does not confer any change in immigration status for that illegal alien. Thus, the illegal alien parent can easily be deported. The child may also be forced to leave with the illegal parent, but this depends entirely on the circumstances. Even if the US citizen child does leave with the illegal parent, that does not affect the citizenship of the child.
