Am I reading SSR's post correctly in that my parents must not have gotten their citizenship in canada at the time of my birth for me to qualify??

Basically, my dad was born in china, been in canada for about 50years. Mom was born in hk been in canada for 30. I was told that it's possible still because my cousins are in the same boat as me and it worked.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Yes, you can get it. My wife was in the exact situation (both her parents are from HK, she was born in Canada). She got her permanent residency just by applying at immigration. You'll need things like your parents' birth certificates, marriage licenses, etc.
