Can individuals born in other provinces get the new secure birth certificates?
• You must apply for your birth certificate from your province of birth. Eight Canadian provinces British Columbia, Alberta, Newfoundland and Labrador, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island will be adopting the new certificate in late 2007 or early 2008. • It is anticipated that the remainder of the Provinces and Territories will also adopt the new certificate in the near future.
