Okay i have a question.
I have dual citizenship cause i was born in Arizona but both my parents are Canadian. So if this baby is born in Canada but since i'm technically American will the baby have dual citizenship too? (Mat is Canadian)

The baby is a citizen of whatever country it's born in, unless you're an ambassador.
Because you were born in the US, then moved with your parents to Canada and lived there for however long it takes to become a citizen.
Anyone born in the US automatically gets citizenship, so that is where you got the US citizenship from. I assume since your parents are Canadian that automatically grants you citizenship for that country, thus you are a dual citizen.
Since the baby will be born in Canada to Canadian parents it will be a Canadian citizen. You might be able to get US citizenship as well for the baby depending on how old you were when you lived in the US, and how long you were here.
