I was a protected person in Canada and became a Canadian citizen a year ago, last month I visited my own country! When I returned back to Canada the officer sent me to the emigration side and asked me why I went back to my country? I explained that has been changed to my situation! He seems to be very angry with me! He told me just leave I told him thank you sir and just run !
Can a refugee visit his country? will I see my brother again? is he lying to me?

To be honest I am afraid to go next year againYou could choose not to answer the question too
Because a citizen by definition no longer has refugee status. The caveat is citizenship can be revoked if it’s determined to be obtained from misrepresentation but it’s a far longer process and rarely done for simply going back to someone’s birth country.
Because you loose both your refugee/protected and Permanent resident status once you become Canadian Citizen…
In that cas why CBSA agent are sending "former refugees" to immigration room (even if they are not coming from home country) while every other canadian go immediately to the exit? I don't just understand why? What are they looking for? Some agent even asked if you claim refugee status before ...
Call the CBSA, send them an email, repeat if they don’t answer within a week, also tell your local MP/MPP
Ali1luiza where did you go? I am very surprised to read that. You are already Canadian, what on earth are they questioning you about why you are visiting your family and loved ones? Maybe it's related to your asylum country of origin. What kind of questions did they ask you?
