My wife (dual Canadian/US) got her US citizenship 2 years ago. Nothing like what you describe happened.

I appreciate the feedback. My Canadian coworker was naturalized about 5-7 years ago.
I was naturalized about a decade ago and nothing of the sort happened for me either, or for the other two people I know who were naturalized around that time.

The reason is that you are only required to renounce "allegiance" to other countries during the naturalization ceremony. This has nothing to do with citizenship.
