In a testy exchange in the House of Commons on Tuesday, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre accused Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of sowing the “divisions” that led to the violent clash between Sikh separatists and Hindu worshippers outside a Hindu temple in Brampton on the weekend.
The question period exchange kicked off with Trudeau calling Poilievre’s silence on the violence in South Asian communities “deafening.”
Poilievre accused Trudeau of using the issue to distract from domestic economic issues.
