Son of a South African emerald mine tycoon, AFAIK family moved to Canada in his youth, then he moved to the US.

I feel bad for any non-white employee of SpaceX, Starlink etc. who feels they cannot quit due to living expenses. If I were in their shoes and could get another job, I'd be leaving ASAP.

His mother is Canadian.

He later moved to Canada when he was old enough to leave and then other family members followed to NA later.

His mother's from Alberta. He's canadian because of that. He went to college at Queens first.

Yea most of the world's worst people and companies are Canadian. We're good at making evil people. We're also good at other things but our capitalists are far more evil than Americans.

Americans just take, Canadians take while promising the world then go supprised Pikachu when everyone gets fucked.

It's just like Hitler actually being Austrian. Or Stalin being Georgian. Or Napóleon being Corsican.
