Elon Musk has citizenship in three countries

Elon Musk holds citizenship in South Africa, the United States, and Canada. His Canadian citizenship was inherited from his mother, who was born in Canada. This citizenship is now under scrutiny due to a petition demanding its revocation. The petition, initiated by a British Columbia author, has over 340,000 signatures. It argues that Musk's actions threaten Canadian sovereignty. Musk dismissed the petition, claiming "Canada is not a real country," which drew further attention to his controversial status. Legal experts note that Canada cannot easily revoke citizenship unless it was obtained fraudulently. Recent legal developments may affect citizenship laws, particularly regarding children born abroad to Canadian citizens. The outcome of these changes remains uncertain.
