据外媒报道,25日,一份呼吁取消埃隆·马斯克加拿大公民身份的请愿书签名人数突破25万。请愿书指控马斯克企图“颠覆”加拿大的主权。

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.

报道介绍称,这位亿万富豪出生于南非比勒陀利亚的一个富裕家庭,后随母亲移民加拿大并取得该国国籍,目前拥有加拿大和美国双重国籍身份。

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.

这份2月20日发起的请愿书指出,马斯克“从事了损害加拿大国家利益的活动”。请愿书说,身为美国公民兼特朗普总统高级顾问的马斯克,已成为“企图颠覆加拿大主权的外国政府的一分子”。

"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."

马斯克24日在社交平台X上发文嘲讽这次请愿活动,称“加拿大不算真正的国家”,但该帖随后被删除。

Responding to the petition, the billionaire wrote on X: "Canada is not a real country." The post was later deleted.

据报道,马斯克是特朗普的坚定支持者,而特朗普多次质疑加拿大主权,并声称加拿大应该成为美国的一个州。

发起请愿的加拿大联邦议员查理·安格斯表示,此举“让民众有机会表达对寡头和极端势力膨胀的合理愤怒”。他说:“像马斯克这样的人是我们国家的敌人。”

在加拿大,只有在移民申请时使用了欺诈、虚假陈述等手段时,公民身份才会被撤销,这意味着马斯克的加拿大国籍并没有办法被取消。

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.

报道指出,提交给加拿大议会的请愿书虽无法律效力,但可能获得政府的正式回应。

The petition is mostly symbolic and has no legal force.
