I am in the same boat. From what I can see, you would need to register at the embassy, bringing in a birth certificate for the child with your name on it, and proof of your Canadian Citizenship. There might be some notarizing and translating to do for the BC, but I'm pretty sure you can have that done at the embassy. There is 1 policy that is new, that if you were born outside of canada, a child born outside of canada will not be elligible for citizenship by birth. In this case you would have to sponsor the child.
