No. It is not advised that you travel using your proof of Canadian citizenship (citizenship card or provincial birth certificate) because we are aware that most airlines will not carry a passenger who only presents a passport from a country which may normally require a Canadian visa in order to facilitate entry to Canada. A passport is the only reliable and universally accepted identification document. It proves that you have a right to return to Canada. For more information, please see Returning to Canada.
