I know, it's a bad and weird time to be asking this.

I've been thinking more about getting my US citizenship just for a little piece of mind. I've lived here for over 20 years and have a couple kids born here, house and American wife and step kids. There is some point of craziness that would make me take them all and leave I suppose, but hopefully it doesn't come to that.

I never really had a good reason to get it until now. Is there any downside? Has anyone done it and regretted it for some reason?

I believe I can still keep my Canadian citizenship and have a Canadian passport, even though I think the US doesn't recognize it. Is there anything I'm not considering other than being a traitor?
