Can I have my citizenship certificate mailed while overseas?

I became a citizen recently, attended the ceremony online.

I had a flight booked which I postponed to attend the ceremony. I postponed it to 3 weeks after the ceremony.

If the certificate doesn’t arrive by my travel date, the plan is to have someone mail it to me and then I will apply for my passport in my home country.

I did the same thing with my PR card.

Has anybody done something like this before?

No need for anecdotal stories from someone else. You can apply for a passport at your local Canadian consulate.

Do you see any issues with having the citizenship certificate mailed?

I mean, the probability of losing a document is never 0, but you know that already. Apart from that, nothing specific to sending it by mail VS a passport or your old PR card, apart maybe from the need to put it in a rigid binder to avoid that piece of paper being damaged I guess.
