Yes. A Canadian can register a business in the U.S. with OR without a visa work status. The U.S. freely allows us to register/incorporate and pay all the fees associated with creation (which is quite costly, but even more so for a non-American without an Social Security Number).

The thing that they don't mention is that once you get that business setup, invest all your time and money preparing and purchasing stock/inventory/or whatever else you'll need, if you are dealing with the public and want to actually "collect" payments for your business, it will be virtually impossible to get a merchant account that will allow you to process payments if you don't have an SSN number (which is apparently the only way they can identify your identity.) Not even online processers such as Square (who don't even require you to have a merchant account) will allow you to signup without an SSN.

Think long and hard about that before proceeding.

Can you become a sovereign citizen in Canada?

The concept of sovereign citizen has no basis in law or fact. It is an internet myth made up by conspiracy theorists. Declaring yourself a sovereign citizen will accomplish absolutely nothing, except maybe lead other people to question your mental sanity. Anyone who tries to convince you otherwise is not looking out to help you.


Do you have to renounce Canadian citizenship to be a US citizen?

No, you do not have to renounce Canadian citizenship to become a U.S. citizen. Canada allows dual citizenship, meaning you can hold citizenship in both countries simultaneously. However, when applying for U.S. citizenship, you must comply with U.S. laws and requirements, but renouncing Canadian citizenship is not a condition. Always check for any changes in immigration policies that may affect this status.


Is there a way you can audition for degrassi even if your not Canadian citizen if you got a part obviously you would move to Canada and become a citizen but unless you got a part we wouldn't move?

Depends on if the production company will let you. If you do get the part, the production company would have to fill out a work status Canadian visa stating that you are a specialized worker(meaning you are better than a Canadian citizen at your job). They would have to keep doing this until you apply and get Canadian Citizenship. Your job and ability to stay in Canada would all depend on the production company doing this.
