Jim Carrey did not switch. He is still a Canadian citizen. He has dual citizenship. You don't need to give up dual citizenship for anything in Canada. The only exception I can think of is Conrad Black whom Chretien forced to choose between getting an Order of Canada or renouncing his British citizenship or his seat in the UK House of Lords?
