Was India really behind Canada’s Sikh shooting?

The country’s Punjabi community has a history of gang and gun violence

Justin Trudeau has this week accused the Indian government of the murder of prominent Sikh leader and pro-Khalistan activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who was gunned down outside a Sikh temple in Surrey, BC this past June. The accusations have further strained relations between Canada and India, with Ottawa expelling the Indian intelligence chief stationed in Canada, and India in turn asking a high-ranking Canadian diplomat to leave the country within the next few days.

Trudeau tempers criticism as allies decline to condemn India over slain Sikh leader

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he does not want to escalate tensions further with India, on a day when Canada’s allies showed signs they are unwilling to join Ottawa’s public condemnation of New Delhi for its alleged role in the gangland-style slaying of a prominent Canadian Sikh leader.

As he entered a cabinet meeting Tuesday, Mr. Trudeau sought to dial back his dramatic criticism of India after New Delhi ordered Canadian diplomat Olivier Sylvestre out of the country in a tit-for-tat response to Ottawa’s expulsion of an Indian foreign intelligence officer from its High Commission in Ottawa.


GUNTER: Trudeau tough with one, not the other

I won’t pretend to know the truth about Hardeep Singh Nijjar, the Sikh leader who was gunned down in June as he left his gurdwara in Surrey. B.C. after worship.

Was Nijjar just a refugee from India who had come to Canada in 1997 and started a successful plumbing business? Or was he, as the Indian government charges, a leader of the Khalistan Tiger Force who trained violent militants in the Lower Mainland for attacks in India.


The world knows Canada’s Liberal Government is a Beijing branch plant operation so it’s no surprise that Junior would attempt to disrupt India’s key position within the Asian counterweight to China’s imperialist dream.

Given Trudeau is a ChiCom dupe and Canada’s China Class is so deeply embedded in our society it’s understandable that no nation would side with Junior.

Any transcripts of conversations other nations may have with Trudeau are probably on Xi’s desk before Junior hangs up the phone.

John Ivison: No public evidence, but plenty of carnage after Trudeau’s India accusations

So, there goes Canada’s Indo-Pacific strategy, the much-vaunted plan to counter an increasingly quarrelsome China by improving relations with democracies in the region like… India.

Not much is clear after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s stunning speech in the House of Commons that linked agents of the government of India with the June murder in B.C. of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

Tasha Kheiriddin: Trudeau, China have most to gain from India tensions

The House of Commons is back — and with it, a crisis no one saw coming. On Monday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that “Over the past number of weeks, 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 then intoned, “Any involvement of a foreign government in the killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil is an unacceptable violation of our sovereignty.”

It sounds like Trudeau is working for China to me.

No one takes Junior seriously: Canada’s allies rebuff its requests to join in accusations against India

Weeks before Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau aired an explosive accusation that Indian officials may have been behind the slaying of a Sikh separatist leader in British Columbia, Ottawa asked its closest allies, including Washington, to publicly condemn the murder. But the overtures were rebuffed, underscoring the diplomatic balancing act facing the Biden administration and its allies as they work to court an Asian power seen as a crucial counterweight to China.


Junior is such a loser. A desperate call to the Star was made… 

Ottawa’s allies must loudly condemn Indian attack on Canadian sovereignty

Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre urges PM Trudeau to reveal evidence of India’s role in killing of Canadian Sikh leader

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre called on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Tuesday to provide Canadians with hard evidence that agents of the Indian government were behind the slaying of a prominent Sikh leader that has led to a deep chill in Indo-Canadian relations.
The Prime Minister announced Monday that Ottawa had credible intelligence that India carried out the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar and it expelled India’s top foreign intelligence officer in the High Commission in Ottawa.


No wonder Junior looked like someone pissed in his cornflakes….

India read the riot act to the Canadian NSA during the G-20 summit

PM Justin Trudeau is playing vote bank politics in singling out India for interference in internal affairs of Canada. He just does not have a case.

Days after chief of proscribed Khalistan Tiger Force (KTF) Hardeep Singh Nijjar was gunned down by unidentified men in Vancouver on June 18, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar went on record stating that rise of so-called Khalistan politics was driven by “vote bank politics” in Canada.

Trudeau says other countries are quietly backing Canada in fight over Online News Act

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says other countries are quietly taking Canada’s side as giant tech companies push back against his government’s Online News Act.

C-18, which passed the House of Commons in June, requires that tech giants Google and Meta pay media outlets for news content they share or otherwise repurpose on their platforms.

Meta already has pulled news and content from Canadian publishers and broadcasters from its platform in Canada in response to the law. Google has threatened to do the same.

John Ivison: Trudeau tries pinning the cost-of-living blame on anyone but himself

I hate this asshole.

To err is human; to blame someone else is politics.

The House of Commons is back and the prime minister had barely cleared his throat before he turned the Opposition leader’s questions on housing and grocery affordability into a response about the Conservative party’s plan to “restrict access to abortion, deny the impact of climate change and put more assault weapons on our streets.”

Politicians looking to pass the buck have always kept the public alarmed by menacing it with an endless series of imaginary hobgoblins, as American journalist H.L. Mencken once put it.

Suspected terrorist and illegal alien India allegedly killed used Canada as a doormat like Trudeau does

What we know about the man India allegedly killed on Canadian soil

… He came to Canada in 1997, Global reported, and claimed refugee status, having used a false passport to enter the country.

His refugee claim was rejected, but 11 days after that, he married a woman who sponsored him for immigration. That, too, was rejected, although Nijjar called himself a Canadian citizen, and Trudeau referred to him as such in the House of Commons on Monday.


Not a Canadian citizen, just a suspected terrorist and murderer on the run who used Canada as a doormat just like Trudeau does.

Many other nations have assassinated troublesome types abroad. Some Canada considers allies.

Few complain that Israel offed the Munich terrorists wherever they found them.

Trudeau’s selective faux outrage is disingenuous given Canada chose sides in this conflict and offered a safe haven to Khalistani separatists.

Trudeau hoped this announcement would deflect from his horrid domestic predicament and it will but only to illustrate what a sorry hypocrite he is for having sought to wrap himself in the flag in a desperate attempt to boost his flatlining popularity and divert attention from the LPC’s corrupt links with Communist China.

Given the animosity between China and India it is reasonable to wonder if Trudeau isn’t acting on Xi Jinping’s intruction or on his own initiative to embarrass India and score Brownie points with his ChiCom friends.

After all it is alleged the CSIS China leaks were due to the Trudeau government’s efforts to restore “normal relations” with Communist China despite their having taken two Canadian citizens hostage and resolute commitment to undermine Canadian sovereignty. 

When it comes to Trudeau no motive is too low to be ruled out.


Lots of reaction …

Indian government linked to murder in B.C. of Sikh leader wanted for terrorism says guy who plays footsies with Communist China

Trudeau says Indian government linked to murder of Sikh leader in B.C.

OTTAWA – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Monday that Canada has credible information that the Indian government agents were involved in the murder of a Canadian citizen in Surrey, B.C. earlier this year.

Hardeep Singh Nijjar was shot on June 18 outside a Sikh temple in Surrey. He was a prominent Sikh leader and backed the establishment of a separate state, called Khalistan, for Sikhs in India

Matthew Lau: Battery plant ‘investments’ confirm Liberals’ financial illiteracy

If Canadians were already frustrated with the Liberal government’s interventionist economic policies, which have produced miserable results to date, then the latest Parliamentary Budget Officer report on a set of floundering subsidies certainly won’t help.

The federal and Ontario governments have promised to give Stellantis-LG Energy Solutions and Volkswagen $28.2 billion to subsidize new electric vehicle battery plants. According to the PBO, it’s going to take them 20 years to break even, far more than the government’s guess of 3.3 years. If this estimate anywhere near accurate, it would make these subsidies a catastrophically bad investment.

Liberals hoping public dumb enough to swallow “solutions” to housing crisis and rising crime rates that LPC policies created

Liberals hope focus on housing, crime halts their plummet in the polls as Parliament returns

After taking a beating in the polls all summer, Liberal MPs are expected to focus on two areas of political vulnerability for them — housing and public safety — when Parliament resumes today after the summer break.

Conservatives, riding high in the polls and re-energized after a September policy convention, will use every opportunity they have during the fall sitting to argue that after eight years in government, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s policies have failed to address a shortage of housing or to keep communities safe.

Joe Oliver: Liberals on the same path of self-inflicted ruin as the Soviets

Growing gap between Ottawa’s version of reality and the facts on the ground becoming apparent to Canadians

The Soviet Union ultimately collapsed from internal contradictions related to a faltering ideology, limited free speech, economic mismanagement, deteriorating international influence and an inability to deliver on promises of a better life that were painfully obvious to all but were not, for fear of brutal reprisal, discussed publicly until near the very end. Justin Trudeau’s leftist woke government is afflicted by similar if milder contradictions that in our free country the aggrieved population living under them is discussing quite openly — which suggests the government’s dissolution will come faster.

Astonishing scenes from Justin Trudeau’s flailing Liberals

The federal Liberals are in big trouble and they clearly don’t know what to do about it. But by God they’re game to try anything, not least on social media. And so it was on Wednesday afternoon that Whitby, Ont. MP Ryan Turnbull (or someone on his behalf) took to the keyboard to assail Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre’s housing policy.

“Poilievre’s plan is to cut funding to municipalities so he can intimidate them into building more homes,” Turnbull lamented. “We are already making historic investments in housing, knowing there is much more to do and we are focused on tackling this crisis head-on,”

Grocer summit to ‘take the heat off’ Ottawa, not tackle food inflation: experts

The federal government’s efforts to gather Canadian grocery executives for a summit to tackle food inflation is “disingenuous” and unlikely to bear much fruit, analysts say.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Thursday announced he was summoning leaders from Canada’s biggest grocers together on Monday, calling for a plan to stabilize food inflation and warning tax measures were on the table should Canadians continue to face undue pain at the grocery store.

It’s so rare to see an honest headline about Trudeau.
