25萬人請願!“撤銷馬斯克加拿大國籍”

據外媒報道,25日,一份呼籲取消埃隆·馬斯克加拿大公民身份的請願書簽名人數突破25萬。請願書指控馬斯克企圖“顛覆”加拿大的主權。
More than 250,000 Canadian citizens and residents have signed a parliamentary petition urging Canada to revoke Elon Musk's citizenship and passport. The petition accuses Musk of acting against Canada's national interest and undermining its sovereignty.

報道介紹稱,這位億萬富豪出生於南非比勒陀利亞的一個富裕家庭,後隨母親移民加拿大並取得該國國籍,目前擁有加拿大和美國雙重國籍身份。
Musk, who was born in Pretoria, South Africa, has previously said that he obtained a Canadian passport as a teenager through his mother, Maye Musk, who was born in Canada. The billionaire later obtained US citizenship a decade after arriving in the US on a student visa.
這份2月20日發起的請願書指出,馬斯克“從事了損害加拿大國家利益的活動”。請願書說,身為美國公民兼特朗普總統高階顧問的馬斯克,已成為“企圖顛覆加拿大主權的外國政府的一分子”。
"He has used his wealth and power to influence our elections," the petition claims. "He has now become a member of a foreign government that is attempting to erase Canadian sovereignty."
馬斯克24日在社交平臺X上發文嘲諷這次請願活動,稱“加拿大不算真正的國家”,但該帖隨後被刪除。
Responding to the petition, the billionaire wrote on X: "Canada is not a real country." The post was later deleted.

據報道,馬斯克是特朗普的堅定支持者,而特朗普多次質疑加拿大主權,並聲稱加拿大應該成為美國的一個州。
發起請願的加拿大聯邦議員查理·安格斯表示,此舉“讓民眾有機會表達對寡頭和極端勢力膨脹的合理憤怒”。他說:“像馬斯克這樣的人是我們國家的敵人。”
在加拿大,只有在移民申請時使用了欺詐、虛假陳述等手段時,公民身份才會被撤銷,這意味著馬斯克的加拿大國籍並沒有辦法被取消。
However, "Canada does not revoke citizenship that is lawfully obtained. This means that there is actually no way of revoking Elon Musk's Canadian citizenship, unless he obtained it by fraud or misrepresentation," University of Toronto law professor Audrey Macklin told CNN.
報道指出,提交給加拿大議會的請願書雖無法律效力,但可能獲得政府的正式回應。
The petition is mostly symbolic and has no legal force.
