Non-American Bill C-3 Certificate Holders - Surrender & Review Notices

Did any non American applicant receive a Bill C-3 citizenship-certificate surrender or review notice? I’m a journalist researching about Lost Canadians. I am looking for people who received proof of Canadian citizenship after Bill C-3 came into force, but were later contacted by IRCC and asked to surrender their citizenship certificates while their files were reviewed, but from non Americans. Much of the public discussion so far has involved Americans. I’m trying to establish whether similar notices were sent to applicants of other nationalities. I would like to hear from you if: IRCC issued you a citizenship certificate under Bill C-3; you later received a subsection 26(1) surrender, suspension or review notice; your certificate was later reverified, cancelled or remains under review; or you received communication saying a Canadian passport was no longer valid. Please comment below or send me a private message. An initial conversation can be off the record, and I will not publish your name or personal details without your clear consent. For clarity, I am looking specifically at the review of citizenship certificates issued after Bill C-3—not general citizenship delays or files referred to IRCC’s Program Support Unit. For context, I have written about Bill C3 issues:https://newcanadianmedia.ca/american-families-stuck-in-limbo-citizenship-applicants-caught-in-irccs-black-hole/
