    People trying to “both sides same” when Musk is calling our sovereignty fake and aiding a country that has literally threatened us with war to annex us, needs to give their head a shake.

      This isn’t a “both sides” thing.

      It is simply wrong to weaponize citizenship whether it is Trump or a bunch of ignorant Canadians doing it.

      Regardless of how you feel about it, Musk is “half Canadian”.

      The thing we should be doing is in the article, not wasting time on debating citizenship rights. We can decide we don’t allow dual citizenship anymore and make everyone choose to be Canadian or not. He also has facilities in Canada, and tax obligations, we can go after. All of which would be far more productive than violating the rights that legally defines one as Canadian in the first place.

      The fact that a petition to not allow Trump into Canada is a foot note, with less signatures than a petition to remove citizenship at whim, is horrifying.

      Give your head a shake.
