More than 150,000 people from Canada sign a congressional petition asking the country to strip Elon Musk of Canadian citizenship as a high-tech billionaire is allied with Donald Trump. I did. It will be in the 51st state.
Quariar Reed, author of British Columbia, launched a petition in the Canadian House of Representatives, where members of the New Democrat Congress were sponsored and, as first reported by the Canadian press over the weekend, musk critic Charlie. -The Guardian wrote that Angus was released.
Born in South Africa, Musk has led US companies such as electric car maker Tesla, aerospace company SpaceX and social media platform Twitter/X, and Musk holds Canadian citizenship through his mother, originally from Regina, the capital of Saskatchewan. He crusades to reduce the size of the US federal government at the request of the US president, who has consistently challenged Canadian sovereignty since returning to the White House for his second term of office on January 20th. I’ve been working.
Reed’s petition – filed on February 20th – accusing Musk of “engaging in activities that are contrary to Canada’s national interests” by acting as Trump’s advisor. Trump invited 40 million Canadian residents of light corn by imposing sudden tariffs on Canadian products and threatening to openly pride themselves on annexing the US into the United States. Tournament final.
The petition argues Musk’s alliance with Trump has made him a “member of a foreign government seeking to erase Canadian sovereignty.” He asks Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to take away his mask’s Canadian passport and immediately take effect and revoke his citizenship.
Trump often laughed Trudeau as “governor.” This is a title given to the CEO of the US state. And Musk wrote on X, the social media platform he bought in 2022 for $44 billion to taste Trudeau’s announcement in January. Canadian Conservative Chief Pierre Polyeble.
As Canadian press noted, petitions like Reid have obtained the certifications needed to be presented to the Canadian House of Representatives and the certifications necessary to obtain formal government responses. You will need over 500 signatures to do so. Reed’s petition appears to have had no trouble clearing that threshold, except that it collected around 157,000 signatures at the end of Sunday and that number would rise soon.
The Canadian House of Representatives is scheduled to resume work on March 24th, but the country was able to call for a general election before parliamentary members returned. The signing period for Reed’s petition was set to expire on June 20th.
Musk’s instructions to cut federal spending on the surface after Trump lost re-election to Joe Biden in 2020, but after securing it in November at the expense of Kamala Harris, the company was found to have been in the hundreds of thousands. It influenced US government officials. The cuts include thousands of people including Veteran Affairs, Defense, Department of Health and Human Services, Internal Revenue Agency, and National Park Services.
An economist/YouGov poll with around 1,600 respondents recently claimed Musk and his so-called “Government Efficiency Ministry” (DOGE) are serving more than many areas they target. It is much less popular with the public.
Nevertheless, at a conservative gathering in Maryland on Friday, Musk revealed his involvement in the Trump administration by working on a giant chainsaw in the air.
And on Sunday, Musk supported X’s post. Those who don’t support it are Americans. ”
