Over 110,000 Canadians have signed a petition calling for the removal of U.S. Envoy Pete Hoekstra. The petition accuses Hoekstra of supporting the Trump administration’s alleged threats to annex Canada as the 51st state. The campaign highlights concerns over U.S. Foreign policy and its impact on Canadian sovereignty.
The petition was launched in response to statements made by former U.S. President Donald Trump, who claimed during his presidency that Canada could be incorporated into the United States. Hoekstra, a U.S. Diplomat, has been criticized for allegedly endorsing or normalizing these remarks.
Canadian officials have expressed dismay over the perceived normalization of such claims. The petition underscores growing public sentiment in Canada against what many view as aggressive U.S. Diplomatic behavior.
The movement reflects broader tensions between the two nations, particularly around issues of sovereignty and territorial integrity. The petition remains active, with continued support from Canadian citizens concerned about U.S. Influence.
