PoliticsCanadian petition to expel US ambassador gains more than 170,000 signatures

An official Canadian petition calling for the expulsion of US Ambassador Pete Hoekstra has collected more than 171,000 signatures, far above the 500 needed for debate in the House of Commons. It accuses Hoekstra of repeatedly undermining Canada-US relations. The non-binding petition reflects discontent with Donald Trump’s policies, though its eventual parliamentary support is unclear.
