My son was born in Australia from Australian citizen mother on 01/03/2014. I will be Canadian by the end of august 2014.Thus, I wonder if my son can be Canadian?

You have to be a Canadian citizen before the birth of your child.

If you want your child to be Canadian you can sponsor your child and apply for PR. After that not sure how citizenship works for children.

A minor who is sponsored by a citizen parent can apply for citizenship immediately after landing.
