A petition to revoke Elon Musk’s Canadian citizenship has gained over 250,000 signatures, reflecting growing public dissatisfaction with him.
A new petition has gained significant attention, calling for the revocation of Elon Musk’s Canadian citizenship.
This petition has attracted over 250,000 signatures in a short period.
Many people are concerned about Musk’s involvement with the U.S. government, especially under President Trump.
Musk’s actions raise concerns for Canada’s interests.
The petition claims that Musk has acted against Canada’s national interests.
It emphasizes his role in the Trump administration, where he leads the Department for Government Efficiency (DOGE).
This department focuses on reducing government costs, modernizing technology, and improving efficiency.
However, many Canadians feel that Musk’s actions are not in line with what is best for Canada.
Trump’s tariffs increase tensions between Canada.
The situation escalated when President Trump announced plans to impose a 25 percent tariff on all Canadian imports.
This announcement has alarmed many Canadians, including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Trudeau responded by saying Canada is prepared to take action against these tariffs.
He warned that U.S. decisions could harm both the Canadian economy and American people.
“We’re ready with a response, a purposeful, forceful but reasonable, immediate response.”
Trudeau explained: “It will have real consequences for you, the American people. The actions taken by the White House split us apart instead of bringing us together.”
Petition for revocation of Elon Musk’s Canadian citizenship surpasses 250,000 signatures
In light of these developments, the petition against Musk has gained momentum.
The petition argues that Musk has used his wealth and influence to meddle in Canadian affairs.
It states that he has become part of a foreign government that threatens Canadian sovereignty.
The petitioners urge the Prime Minister to revoke Musk’s dual citizenship and Canadian passport immediately.
“Elon Musk has engaged in activities that go against the national interest of Canada,” the petition claims.
“He has used his wealth and power to influence our elections.”
It adds: “He has now become a member of a foreign government that is attempting to erase Canadian sovereignty; and the attempts of Elon Musk to attack Canadian sovereignty must be addressed.
“We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the Prime Minister to revoke Elon Musk’s dual citizenship status, and revoke his Canadian passport effective immediately.”
Musk’s Canadian citizenship comes from his mother, who was born in Canada.
Musk himself was born in South Africa and also holds U.S. citizenship.
Qualia Reed emphasizes accountability for influential leaders.
Qualia Reed, the creator of the petition, shared her thoughts on social media.
She clarified that the petition is not about personal attacks against Musk.
Instead, it aims to hold influential figures accountable for their actions and decisions that affect global politics and industries.
Reed emphasized the importance of ethical responsibility among those in powerful positions.
“To (be) clear, this action I started, and all of you are spreading and growing, isn’t about personal attacks.
“It’s about ensuring that those who influence global policies and industries know that the people are not okay with their lack of ethical responsibility.”
Musk faces legal challenges in multiple jurisdictions.
Despite the petition’s popularity, experts suggest that revoking Musk’s citizenship may not be feasible.
Audrey Macklin, a law professor at the University of Toronto, pointed out that Canada generally does not revoke citizenship that has been lawfully obtained.
This means that Musk’s citizenship could only be revoked if it was obtained through fraud or misrepresentation.
