Over 200,000 sign petition to revoke Elon Musk’s Canadian citizenship, passport
More than 230,000 people have signed a petition demanding the government to revoke Elon Musk’s Canadian citizenship and passport over claims that the billionaire is engaging in practices that go against Canada’s national interest.
The petition alleged that Mr Musk had “become a member of a foreign government that is attempting to erase Canadian sovereignty.”
Mr Musk is also a U.S. citizen and an ally of President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly sought the annexation of Canada to make it the United States’ 51st state.
Mr Musk did not appear bothered by the petition.
“Canada is not a real country,” said Mr Musk in a now-deleted X post.
The relationship between Canada and the U.S. has become volatile since Mr Trump’s second coming.
He has continued to refer to Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as ‘Governor Trudeau’.
