More than 150,000 Canadians sign petition to revoke Musk’s citizenship

Do it Canada! Do not hesitate.

Sadly, it is. Britain did it a few years ago to some kid that joined IS. She held rights to a passport to a country that she had never been even visited and that was enough for the Home Office to yank her British one.

A pretty tragic tale imo

Supervisor: Hey, um, I think you forgot to include sources in your thesis?
Grad student: You can also look up a source. It's real easy these days, with the little supercomputers in all our pockets.

Charlie Angus wrote about why he's helping to push this through, giving valid legal reasons why it should be done. Seeing as he's a current MP in Canada's parliament I'll believe him before I believe you.

At just over 179k signatures now.

Probably did her a favour not letting her back.
Not seen such a prominent figure of hate since Cat Bin Lady.

...Especially since the alternative could be just charging him with treason or something.

Dunno, stateless in a refugee camp currently as Bangladesh won't let her in either. Think I'd opt for keeping a low profile in Britain instead, change name, get the hair dye and sunglasses on and move to a shitty wee town somewhere

For me, it's not even about the interaction. "Do your own research" is conspiracy ideologists language for "trust me brah" and we should be better than that. Whatever they claim may simply not be true and "look it up yourself" is just a means to waste everybody's time because there isn't anything to look up.
Not to mention, whoever made the claim should already have at least an idea where they got the claim so why send everybody on a wild goose chase when they can simply link to it? -
How many people commit treason for there to be any precedent
-
It is legal. And I'm hoping they yank it.

we’re not all robots
Sounds like something a robot would say...
-
The gov't doesn't have to charge him with treason to revoke his citizenship. They only have to prove that he committed it.
-
Is this like a reality TV show where we can simply vote people off the
islandcountry? -
Yea, Apple Podcasts or iHeartRadio has that.
-
I would be surprised if this sort of thing was possible and I’m pretty sure it’s not and im pretty sure it’s a good thing that it’s not
It isn't in the US, but the US is not all countries.

Afroyim v. Rusk, 387 U.S. 253 (1967), was a landmark decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, which ruled that citizens of the United States may not be deprived of their citizenship involuntarily.[1][2][3] The U.S. government had attempted to revoke the citizenship of Beys Afroyim, a man born in Poland, because he had cast a vote in an Israeli election after becoming a naturalized U.S. citizen. The Supreme Court decided that Afroyim's right to retain his citizenship was guaranteed by the Citizenship Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution. In so doing, the Court struck down a federal law mandating loss of U.S. citizenship for voting in a foreign election—thereby overruling one of its own precedents, Perez v. Brownell (1958), in which it had upheld loss of citizenship under similar circumstances less than a decade earlier.

I almost always include links, but not always when it's something I've already linked to dozens of times. In that case, I figure if people are interested enough, they'll want to do their own research... and if they're not, then I'm not gonna continue wasting my time just because someone wants to argue again.
