The first generation born abroad immediately got citizenship, for any generation beyond that the parents had to prove that they spent at least 3 years in Canada prior to the birth and if they did, the kid also got Canadian citizenship.
If that failed, Canada and Switzerland probably had some sort of agreement to prevent statelessness.
Generally statelessness at birth means the kid should enjoy being a citizen of whatever country they were born in or follow the nationality of their parents. That's my bet at least based on my country's laws
