Trudeau accuses India's government of involvement in killing of Canadian Sikh leader
CBC ^ | 09 18 2023 | John Paul Tasker

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is accusing the government of India of involvement in the fatal shooting of a Canadian Sikh leader — a claim that will have seismic effects on an already shaky bilateral relationship.

Canadian citizen Hardeep Singh Nijjar was brazenly shot dead outside a Sikh temple in Surrey, B.C. on June 18.

Nijjar, a supporter of a Sikh homeland in the form of an independent Khalistani state, had been branded by the Indian government as a "terrorist" and accused of leading a militant separatist group — something his supporters have denied.

Now, Trudeau said, Canada's national security apparatus has reason to believe that "agents of the Indian government" carried out the killing of this Canadian citizen, who also served as the president of Surrey's Guru Nanak Sikh Gurdwara.

"Canadian security agencies have been actively pursuing credible allegations of a potential link between agents of the Government of India and the killing of a Canadian citizen, Hardeep Singh Nijjar," Trudeau said Monday in a speech to the House of Commons.

"Any involvement of a foreign government in the killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil is an unacceptable violation of our sovereignty. It is contrary to the fundamental rules by which free, open and democratic societies conduct themselves.

"As you would expect, we have been working closely and coordinating with our allies on this very serious matter."

Could only pull it off if Canada is a VERY VIOLENT country, which they certainly appear to be.

The poofter Castro Junior didn’t like the treatment he got from India earlier, so he’s being a petulant child here.

New Canadians should leave home country gripes and disputes behind them.
Become a Canadian and embrace your new start.

Or, go back home

Guess Trudy will have to give away his Indian costumes.

What will he wear??? Oh noes.

At least he seems to have his eyebrow glue under better control.

Maybe he should be a mental pt. Look at this!

“is contrary to the fundamental rules by which free, open and democratic societies conduct themselves.”

What kind of lunacy is this?

Typical western garbage.

I know some Canadians who had frozen bank accounts...lol.

I can’t think about Justin without seeing him dressed in a dirndl.

What a hypocrite!

This from the jerk who replaced the Ottawa Chief of Police with a thug and then sent hordes of government goons to trample peaceful protesters.

Little Miss Muffet.

Well, we kill terrorists in other countries - I’m having trouble seeing the problem with India and other countries doing the same thing.

The Village People only hired people with genuine talent. That lets Trudeau out.

Right? And Canada has probably killed terrorists in other countries as well.

This is smoke and there is something unsaid to get Trudy all excited.

A senior government source told CBC News that Trudeau has briefed the leaders of some of Canada’s closest allies about the case, including U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, French President Emmanuel Macron and U.S. President Joe Biden.


Its a lead in to attack India because of something else they want to drag India thru the dirt over..

Some payment agreement that India is doing and it dedollarizes.
So now India must be punished. The west begins joining hands to punish.
Lets see what happens next.
