A House of Commons petition to revoke the Canadian citizenship of Elon Musk has been started by Qualia Reed, an author from Nanaimo, British Columbia. As reported by The Current in our November 13, 2024 e-Newsletter (see LINK), Musk is a Canadian citizen. Reed’s petition was filed on February 20th and is being sponsored through the Commons process by Charlie Angus, MP for James Bay/Timmins (NDP). Angus’ criticism of Musk has been widely reported.

Details of the petition
Petition to the Prime Minister
Whereas:
- Elon Musk has engaged in activities that go against the national interest of Canada;
- He has used his wealth and power to influence our elections;
- He has now become a member of a foreign government that is attempting to erase Canadian sovereignty; and
- The attempts of Elon Musk to attack Canadian sovereignty must be addressed.
We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the Prime Minister to revoke Elon Musk’s dual citizenship status, and revoke his Canadian passport effective immediately.
The petition is open for signature until June 20th, 2025, and at time of publication, the petition has garnered nearly 200,000 signatures. Click HERE to read the e-petition online or to sign it.
I’m very glad you posted this petition……despite what Eve said. Thank you. The man is evil as is his best buddy.
Sorry folks but this is an obnoxious proposal and an attempt at whimsically wokist cancellation and annihilation which would set a very dangerous precedent. Elon Musk has inherited his Canadian citizenship from his mother, Maye Musk (née Haldeman), who was born in Saskatchewan to parents who were also native-born Canadian citizens. Such a cancellation of Canadian citizenship by birth to native-born Canadian citizens would actually violate the Charter of Rights so this petition is basically a total waste of time. A better idea:- ask the Canadian government to introduce a resolution into the UN to severely censure and suspend from membership the USA for persistently proposing to forcibly annex other countries, such as Panama, Canada, and Greenland in gross violation of the Charter of the United Nations and also for persistently proposing to dispossess various peoples of their native homelands, such as the Ukrainians and the Palestinians. The same petition could also ask the Canadian government to propose a resolution to relocate the United Nations from New York City to a more neutral and sympathetic locale such as London, Paris, or Vienna by reason that the USA has become grossly hostile to the goals of the United Nations.
