This is a deeply personal concern for me, rooted in my conviction that negotiations related to national interest can only be handled by elected representatives. Kevin O'Leary, a Canadian businessman and television personality, is rumored to be meeting with the new Donald Trump US Administration to discuss matters involving Canada. We must firmly contest this, as O'Leary does not have any official status and therefore does not represent anyone but himself in any engagement with the US Administration. Most importantly, he does not have the authority to convene with President Donald J. Trump as anything other than a private individual.

The impact and potential risks of such unmandated diplomatic engagements are significant. We live in a democracy, where public officials are voted into office to protect our best interests and make decisions on our behalf. With no legal or popular mandate, Kevin O'Leary doing negotiations could potentially undermine the democratic process, nullify the voice of the Canadian people, and jeopardize the nation's interest, or worse, put into motion actions by the new US Administration that are damaging and nearly impossible to revers.

Thus, this petition aims to bring attention to this issue and demand an immediate cease of Kevin O'Leary's allegedly planned discussions with the new US Administration. We call upon concerned citizens to voice their resistance loudly. Sign and support this petition to uphold the sanctity of our democratic representations.
