| | Do naturalisation rules vary from one canton to an other?
I have heard different cantons have different rules for naturalisation. Is this correct?

Even from town to town.

Worry about the C permit first, before you start thinking about naturalization. A lot can change in 10 years. | The following 2 users would like to thank 3Wishes for this useful post: | |

and at local level, representatives change every 4 years  or whenever someone decides to resign/retire from the rôle.

Here is table I found - https://www.sem.admin.ch/sem/en/home...tzfristen.html
Does it mean that someone who relocated to Switzerland and lived in BE, GE, JU, SH or ZH for just two year can get Swiss passport? Sounds too good to be true...

You will have to meet the federal requirements.
AND
You will have to meet the cantons requirement.
AND
You will have to meet the communes requirement.
For example the requirements for minimum residency are: 10 years, 2-5 years, 0-5 years. Big cities such as Geneva, Lausanne, Zurich and Basel are normally more immigration friendly.
