Petition to expel U.S. ambassador tops 29,000 signatures, heads to House this fall

An House of Commons e-petition urging Ottawa to declare U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra persona non grata — a formal diplomatic expulsion — has drawn over 29,000 signatures. Green Party Leader Elizabeth May will present it this fall. The petition accuses Hoekstra of interfering in Canadian political debate in ways that breach diplomatic protocol.
