I would rather he be prosecuted for treason, though I acknowledge that would require us to already be at war with the US (so he could be shown to be aiding the enemy). Too many innocent people (especially activists) could be affected by the precedent this would set-- especially the next time a Conservative government comes to power, though I could even see the Liberal Party mirroring Europe's recent police harassment of Palestinian-friendly journalists if not Trump's deportations of activists for Palestinians' human rights that Poilièvre would likely copy. Despite seeing myself as Canadian all of my life and being here for decades, I already feel less safe in this country, considering rising fascist sentiments like these out there. I'm not eligible for citizenship in the country of my birth either. I know the backlash from just stripping him of his citizenship outright would be directed to people like me.
- This is pretty much the issue: laws have to apply to people I dislike as much as they apply to people I like. That's precisely why we have a constitution, etc.
  As much as I dislike Elon and co, he deserves due process as much as everyone else.
  
  It isn’t just on the basis of we don’t like him. It is because he has actively meddled with the integrity of our democracy AND he has power to do further damage. Lots of Canadians do anti-Canadian shit but very few of them have the power to do the damage that Musk can do.
  
  Whatever legal mechanisms exist need to be followed.
  Didn't get me wrong. I agree, the state has to follow its own laws and respect our constitution.
  
  He gets due process. A hearing is held and it's legally determined if his citizenship should be revoked.
  
  laws have to apply to people I dislike as much as they apply to people I like.
  Is that the case today?
  
  You just proved you're not a maga chad (not insinuating that you ever were, or have been suspected of such).
  It's amazing how much they claim to care about law and order until it happens to someone they like. Then all of the sudden it's unfair. But if it's someone they don't like then forget the due process.
  They're masters of the double standard
