Hi, i'm looking to apply for canadian citizenship for myself.

My grandmother was born in Canada and was a citizen before moving to the UK. However my mother never chose to officially claim her citizenship (she was born in the UK as am i).

Now i am applying for Canada citizenship through descent - does my mother not applying for Canadian citizenship herself affect my ability to apply?

I understand the laws recently changed but i am a bit confused by the official websites guidelines.
