The sentence in which the word "renounce" is used correctly is:

"Though he'd lived in the United States for two decades, Todd refused to renounce his Canadian citizenship."

In this context, "renounce" means to formally declare one's abandonment of a claim, right, or possession. The other sentences do not use "renounce" properly.
