Elon Musk is in hot water with our Canadian neighbors to the north.A parliamentary petition with over 192,000 signatures and climbing is calling on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to revoke MusksCanadian citizenship and passport for threatening Canadas sovereignty by engaging in activities that go against the national interest.British Columbia author Qualia Reed launched the petition in Canadas House of Commons, where it was sponsored by parliamentary member Charlie Angus over the weekend, as reported bythe Canadian Press.Musk was born in South Africa, but obtained Canadian citizenship in 1989 through his mother, Maye Musk, who was born in Saskatchewan. The SpaceX CEO and current adviser to President Trump then went on to become a U.S. citizen in 2002.Like a growing number of Americans, many Canadians have had enough of Musks alliance with Trump and his extreme interference at the highest levels of American government. Canadians are also angered by the continued threats to slap high tariffs on goods from our longtime trading partner and ally, along with Trumps outrageous calls to make Canada our 51st state.The petition, launched on February 20, has already surpassed the 500 signatures required for presentation to the House of Commons to garner a formal government response. It calls on Trudeau to revoke Musks Canadian citizenship status and his Canadian passport effective immediately.
