Incidents of hate crimes against Indians in Canada on rise despite PM Trudeau’s claims of Canada a rule of law country

On September 19, Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused India of having a hand in the killing of a Canadian citizen and Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Trudeau took a high moral ground and declared that “Canada is a rule of law country, the protection of our citizens are fundamental.. Law enforcement and security agencies ensure continued safety of all Canadians..”

But a day later, Canada-based Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, legal advisor and spokesperson for ‘Sikhs for Justice’, a pro-Khalistan group, on Wednesday issued a video message threatening Canadian Indian, saying “Indo-Canadian Hindus, you have refuted your allegiance to Canada and the Canadian constitution. Your destination is India. Leave Canada and go to India. Pro-Khalistan Sikhs have always been loyal to Canada. They have always sided with Canada and they have upholded the laws and constitution of Canada.”
