I assume that will depend on the parents circumstances but there is no automatic access to Canadian citizenship because of that situation. However see

Stateless children of Canadian citizens by descent[edit]
When Bill C-37 became law in 2009, a new provision, subsection 5(5), was also added to provide a path to citizenship for stateless children born to Canadian parents who acquired citizenship by descent. To qualify, the applicants must:
[35]
- be born outside Canada on or after 1 April 2009;
- have at least one parent who is a Canadian citizen by descent;
- meet the residency requirement (1,095 days in four years);
- have been stateless since birth (i.e., cannot have a claim to citizenship of another country, and cannot renounce or lose citizenship of another country); and,
- be less than 23 years of age at the time of application.
Unlike subsections 5(1) and 5(2), subsection 5(5) does not require the applicant to hold permanent resident status to apply (as long as the residence requirement has been met). Additionally, they do not need to attend a ceremony or take the Oath of Citizenship. Other requirements, such as the income tax filing, also do not apply to them.
After 19 June 2017, it is possible for such children to apply for a discretionary grant under subsection 5(4) on the sole ground of being stateless and bypass all requirements, although subsection 5(5) is left intact as a part of the Act.
