**Trader consensus favoring no expulsion of a U.S. ambassador by year-end reflects stable diplomatic norms despite recent bilateral friction.** A high-profile Canadian petition with over 170,000 signatures urges Ottawa to declare Ambassador Pete Hoekstra persona non grata over rhetoric tied to trade disputes and annexation comments, and the measure is slated for parliamentary debate this fall. However, Canadian officials have signaled no intent to invoke the Vienna Convention for such an unprecedented step against a close ally, consistent with historical patterns where expulsions occur only amid acute crises rather than public campaigns. Broader U.S. diplomatic realignments, including ambassador recalls, have not triggered reciprocal actions abroad. With four months remaining, the absence of confirmed escalation keeps the implied probability of no expulsion at 80%.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if any U.S. ambassador is expelled from their assigned country by the government of that country between market creation and December 31, 2026, 11:59: PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
Any expulsion from a country where a U.S. ambassador is assigned as of the time of this market’s creation will qualify.
For the purposes of resolving this market, an official announcement that a U.S. ambassador will be or is being expelled will suffice regardless of whether or not the respective ambassador leaves the country within this market’s timeframe.
Qualifying announcements must be definitive, unambiguous, official statements issued by an authorized governmental person or entity.
Whether the ambassador resigns, is recalled, or otherwise departs voluntarily will have no bearing on the resolution of this market.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the government of the United States, including the U.S. Department of State, as well as official information from the relevant expelling government; however, an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
