Canada Demands U.S. Ambassador Removed | Raleigh News

About this episode

Over 100,000 Canadians have signed a petition demanding U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra be declared “persona non grata” after his comments on Trump’s “Canada as the 51st state” remark—and his past ties to an app used by Alberta separatists—sparked outrage. The petition, launched July 21, tripled in signatures within two days, fueled by public frustration over diplomatic decorum and national representation. Organizer Leanne Walker says she’s stunned by the response, hoping the flood of signatures sends a clear message—even if removal isn’t guaranteed.
