I was born in the USA. My father is USA, my Mom is Canadian - My parents are divorced and I have been living in the US most of my life and currently have a US Passport.

I am now 18, finished with school in the US.
My Mother lives in Canada, my boyfriend lives in Canada

If I wanted to move to Canada with my mom or boyfriend, what do I need to do? My citizenship is USA. Because my mother is Canadian, does this automatically give me dual? This is so confusing.

If your mother was a Canadian citizen at the time of your birth. Then you have to apply for proof of citizenship. See: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/citizenship/proof.asp Once you have the proof, then you can enter Canada as a citizen.
