An online petition calling for the Canadian government to recall Elon Musk citizenship is on the way to become one of the most popular in the history of the House of Home.
There is only one problem – Canada cannot revoke the nationality of the male.
Immigration lawyer Gabriel Ramo says that according to Canadian law, someone’s citizenship can only be revoked if they can prove that they have committed a fraud or a wrong presentation to receive it.
“Before they could move on, they would have to introduce legislation, there should be amendments to the Law on Current Citizenship,” said Ramo, a former chairman of the immigration department of the Canadian Lawyer’s Chamber. “There is no provision that would allow them to revoke the citizenship of Canadian birth, thanks to his birth to the Canadian mother.”
Ramo said it was “quite rare” that Canadian citizenship of the recalls.
Rémi Larivière, a relations officer with the media for immigration, refugees and citizenship of Canada, said that the Government did not recall citizenship lightly.
“A person’s citizenship can be revoked if a person is obtained, retained, renounced or continuing their citizenship with a false representation or fraud or conscious concealment of material circumstances,” Larivière said.
NDP MP Charlie Angus says that the petition he sponsored is Parliament to remove Elona male from her Canadian citizenship about the “sending of a message” to the male and the US government. Legal experts say that one’s citizenship can only be revoked if it can be proven that they have committed a fraud or a false presentation to get it.
He said the proceedings included several steps and the decision of the federal court judge, unless the citizen in question requests the Minister of Immigration to make a decision.
Musk has been the center of attention in recent days after the author of British Colombia Qualia Reed launched request Last week, urging the Canadian government to revoke the men’s citizenship and his Canadian passport, given the role he plays in the Government of US President Donald Trump.
“Elon Musk has participated in the activities that go against the national interest of Canada,” the petition, sponsored by the new Democrat MP Charlie Angus. “He has used his wealth and power to influence our elections; now he has become a member of a foreign government trying to erase Canadian sovereignty; and the attempts of Elon Musk must be resolved to attack Canadian sovereignty.”
The petition has collected more than 263,000 signatures as it was announced on February 20th. The province with the most signatures, more than 96,000, is Ontario, followed by more than 53,000 from British Colombia, more than 43,000 from Quebec and more than 25,000 from Albert.
A petition closer to the record
Those who sign a home-e-comation must list their e-mail address, full name, postal code and telephone number. Canadian nationals who live outside Canada meet the conditions for signing of requests, said Olivier Duhaima, a spokesman for the Municipality Home. House staff checks the signatorial information and if they believe it is not authentic or allowed, the petition clerk may disable it.
The record number of signatures for the e-performance e-performance home is 387,487 for a petition that requires voting on distrust in the Liberal Government, submitted by Conservative MP Michelle Ferreri in January 2024.
On Monday, Musk responded to the post about the petition on his platform of social media x, saying “Canada is not a real country”. That post has been deleted since then.
Musk was born in South Africa, but his mother Maya Musk was born in Regina, giving him the right to Canadian citizenship. As a teenager, Musk decided to move to Canada.
“I left South Africa myself when I was 17 with only a backpack and a book’s backpack,” he published on December 28, 2019. “He worked on my mother’s cousin’s farm at Saskatchewan & A mill in Vancouver. He went to Queens Univ with Stipending & Deblow and then the same on Nadnn/Wharton & Stanton.”
Musk met his first wife at Queen’s University, Canadian author Justine Wilson.
In February 2024, Musk announced on X that it took him more than a decade to receive US citizenship, which he was stated in 2002.
Musk and his companies have not answered CBC News questions in recent weeks.
His mother posted on X that it took her 12 years to get us citizenship, but now all her children and grandchildren have citizenship.
On July 31, 2023, Musk published a picture of himself carried by a T -shirt and Love Canada. In April 2023, he published a picture of Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen with the message “I’m proud of a half Canadian!”
January 8, 2024. Musk published “I love Canada”, the same day he announced “will not pass the following elections” in response to Post about Chrystia Freeland.
Musk also posted messages Support for the conservative leader Pierre Poilievre.
In 2024, Musk political involvement increased, throwing away her support behind US President Donald Trump and donations worth $ 288 million to Trump and other Republican candidates.
In return, Trump put Musk for his newly founded department of government efficiency (Doge), which turned the US government upside down by mass shooting in one ward after another.
US federal workers have been ordered to justify their jobs this weekend, handing over five bullets to their achievements from last week or confronted with a break up. The initiative, led by Elon Musk and his team of the Government Efficiency Department (Doge), has Republican support, democratic opposition and warnings about the legal challenges ahead.
When Trump threatened to turn Canada into 51 countries in January, and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau responded to X “, in hell there was no chance of snowbags that Canada would become part of the United States,” Mruga Mrudeau, who announced earlier in the week to resign.
“Girl, you are no longer the Governor of Canada, so it doesn’t matter what you say.”
Angus, who sponsored the plea to take off the Mošus of Canadian citizenship, admits that the move is symbolic, but touched a lot of people.
“I didn’t expect it to explode the way he did,” Angus said in an interview. “For me, it was really instructive because it shows how angry Canadians are because of what is happening in Washington and how angry people are on Elon Male’s actions. For me, this is a true symbol of this moment.”
Angus also sponsored E-Type of Albertan Gerard Aldidge, which invites the Canadian government to refuse Trump’s entry into Canada for his criminal conviction and his actions in power. That petition, started at the same time, currently has more than 23,000 signatures.
Last month, Angus sent letters sent In the election of Canada and the Canada Election Commissioner, asking them to explore his concerns that Musk could use his platform X to interfere with the upcoming Canadian elections.
At that time, the Canada elections announced that it was a matter for the commissioner’s office. Angus said on Monday that he had not yet heard from the election of the Canada commissioner.
