Ted Rafael Edward Cruz was born on 22 October 1970 in Calgary, Alberta Canada to Rafael Bienvenido Cruz, a “geophysical consultant” born in Matanzas, Cuba, and the former Eleanor Elizabeth Wilson, born in Wilmington, Del. “He's a Canadian,” said Toronto lawyer Stephen Green, past chairman of the Canadian Bar Association's Citizenship and Immigration Section. f a child was born in the territory, he is Canadian, period,” said France Houle, a law professor at the University of Montreal. “He can ask for a passport. He can vote.”The fact that Cruz left Canada when he was 4 doesn't affect his status there, either.“If you leave when you're 2 minutes old, you're still an American. It's the same in Canada,” said Allison Christians, a law professor at McGill University in Montreal. “He's a Canadian citizen.” The U.S. Constitution allows only a “natural born” American citizen to serve as president
