That was my first reaction too. Did you read the text of the petition? What he's doing isn't just politics, he's actively working to erase Canada. There must be some level of anti-Canada behaviour (really bad phrasing, but I can't think of anything better and you know what I mean) that warrants revocation of citizenship?
Perhaps. But the first and second points are allegations that would probably need to be proven in court. I'm not a jurist, but I've got a feeling it wouldn't be so simple.
I gotta say I don't know if it's the same when you're ultra wealthy, but for commoners it's required to pledge allegiance to the king/queen to gain citizenship as well.
Oh shit. I'm not a citizen yet, only a PR. Was planning to apply as soon has I reach 3 years. I'll struggle with that. I'm Australian, so I was born with an allegiance to the British monarch, but to actually say it - urgh.
Yeah, I know British guy who recently became a citizen, and he said it was pretty weird.
From what I can tell, he would have to have acquired the citizenship fraudulently, and he didn't.
There used to be a mechanism for the citizenship of people convicted of treason, spying, and terrorism offences to be revoked, but it was repealed in 2018.
I would like to think the rule of law still applies here.
