I need to confirm what I have found by doing some reading and research online.

I was born in the USA in the early sixties, my mom is a Canadian born citizen and my father a US citizen.

I became a permanent resident of Canada in the early 70's after we moved here. With the 2009 immigration rules changes, am I now a Canadian citizen and can apply for the Canadian Citizen Certificate? Thank you.

Yes, you are now a Canadian citizen and just have to apply for proof of citizenship.
