A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

In the US and Canada at least, there are laws that cover granting birthright citizenship to people born in their airspace of those countries. And since they share a border, it could happen, in theory. Would also depend on the citizenship status of the parents, I imagine…
In practice, I would hope you are right, this would not cause any issues. But if it happened, it would probably get news attention, and who knows what follows from that.
