Over 280,000 Canadians Sign Petition to Revoke Musk's Citizenship

A parliamentary petition in Canada, initiated by MP Charlie Angus, has garnered over 280,000 signatures demanding the revocation of Elon Musk's Canadian citizenship. The petition accuses Musk of acting against Canada's national interests and using his wealth to influence elections, suggesting he has become a member of a foreign government seeking to undermine Canadian sovereignty. Musk's close ties with former President Trump, who has threatened tariffs on Canadian goods, have fueled public outrage and calls for action. In response to the petition, Musk controversially claimed that 'Canada is not a real country' on his social media platform, X. While the petition has significant public support, its actual impact may be limited, as Canadian law typically requires evidence of fraud or misrepresentation for citizenship revocation. The situation reflects growing tensions between Musk, Trump, and Canadian sovereignty concerns amidst political maneuvering in North America.
