There is definitely a bomb threat by Khalistanis which is probably the reason this is being done, good on Canada.

Nope their hope is the wait game for all Punjabi Sikhs to be outside India, I still remember the hyped 2020 one.. that’s when Nijjar was active.

I’m sure now it’s going to be a yearly thing.. kind of like a get together , and if they do it for two decades Brampton has good chance of becoming Khalistan esp if NDP or Liberals are in power.

Because that’s the reality in Canada right now, unless you haven’t been following the news.

With respect to bombing threats in the article:

Last month, an Air India flight from New Delhi to Chicago was diverted to Iqaluit because of a bomb scare. No bomb was found on board.

This flight originated from India en route to the U.S. if there was a bomb on board it would have been brought on board in India.
 
Canada does not give 2 hoots about Khalistan. They are no friends of Sikhs who want Khalistan. Trudeau and his Government are supporting Khalistan because they want Khalistani votes to get re-elected.

But in the madness of getting votes, Trudeau is creating a monster in his own homeland. Khalistanis also have no love for Canada. They are only using Canada as a base to achieve their goals.

Both Trudeau government and Khalistanis are in this to serve their mutual interests. Its funny to see Khalistanis seeking Canadian citizenship only to demand a new country(Khalistan). Clearly shows they have no respect for Canadian passport.

While all that is true , Canada has actually taken genuine steps since Brampton temple issue, they are checking Canadians coming to India, making sure no Khalistani like Nijjar can come to India to cause issues or bomb a plane again.

They arrested Nijjar’s top aide, so we have to give credit for last 2 weeks, could be because of Trump or whatever but works well for innocents on plane and Panjab.

If you are talking about Arsh *****, then there is another side to the story from Pro-Indian Channels. It seems he is a gang member and a drug smuggler. Bishnoi's men are after him seeking his head. So Trudeau government arrested him to keep him safe. All this on the insistence of Jagmeet Singh.

What does the last two weeks have to do with this. The Indian diplomats were deported for overseeing hindtuva sponsored terrorism against Canadian citizens in Canada. You left that out when you mentioned the Brampton temple attacks, trying to frame it as an isolated incident.

I would guess that Indians are the ethnicity that visit India the most from Canada.
 
Indian diplomats in Canada under surveillance, communications intercepted: Centre

India lodged a strong protest with Canada after learning that Indian consulate officials in Vancouver were subjected to audio and video surveillance and had their private communications intercepted, Minister of State for External Affairs Kirti Vardhan Singh told the Rajya Sabha.

Singh, responding to a query about surveillance of Indian diplomats in the Upper House on Thursday, said, "Recently, consular officials at the Indian Consulate in Vancouver were informed by the Canadian authorities that they have been, and continue to be under audio and video surveillance and that their private communications have also been intercepted."

He added, "Government of India lodged a strong protest with the Canadian High Commission in New Delhi on this issue via a note verbale dated November 2, 2024, as these actions were a flagrant violation of all diplomatic provisions."

The surveillance targeting Canadian diplomats is the latest issue to bog down ties between India and Canada, which have been Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's allegations of India’s involvement in the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. India rejected the claims as "absurd" and "motivated", while maintaining that Canada's failure to curb pro-Khalistan elements operating from its soil is a major point of contention.

Singh also briefed lawmakers about ongoing safety concerns for Indian diplomats, citing harassment and intimidation. He revealed that while Canadian authorities have provided security for diplomats and diplomatic properties, they recently informed Indian officials of their inability to guarantee security for consular camps due to threats from extremist elements.

This has disrupted services critical for Indian and Canadian citizens, including senior citizens requiring "life certificates" for pensions, the Minister stated.

Despite these challenges, India continues to engage with Canada on ensuring the safety of its diplomatic personnel and properties.

"On the question of safety and security of Indian diplomats in Canada, the Government of India remains continuously engaged with the Canadian side to ensure that adequate protection is offered at all times to our diplomatic personnel and properties," Singh said, and reiterated that respect for territorial integrity and sovereignty is essential for a stable bilateral relationship.

Tensions between India and Canada reached a boiling point when both countries expelled top envoys after Ottawa identified Indian diplomats as "persons of interest" in its investigation into Nijjar's killing.

Earlier this month, India had also strongly protested a Canadian media report, quoting a top official in the Trudeau administration, that alleged Union Home Minister Amit Shah authorised attacks in Canada, dismissing the claims as "smear campaign." The Canadian government later clarified there was no evidence linking top Indian leaders to Nijjar's murder.

A very good video clip about Khalistan in Canada from 1983. Shows the true face of these Khalistanis.

The moderate Sikh in the video Mr. Ujjal Dosanjh was attacked twice by Khalistanis and both times he escaped the attempts of assassination.
Mr.Dosanjh exposed these terrorists on National TV and paid heavy price for his comments in the video. Mr.Dosanjh clearly mentions that the Khalistanis are using the Sikh temples in Surrey to promote Terror in India as well as the Indian community in British Columbia.

 

Canada report claims India denying visas to Khalistanis, but here is the irony​


Amid the ongoing diplomatic spat between India and Canada, a Canadian news report has claimed that New Delhi has been denying visas to pro-Khalistani citizens unless they explicitly denounce their support for separatism. The report, based on interviews with Sikh Canadians, including by a member of the gurdwara that was headed by slain terrorist Hardeep Nijjar, has come under scathing criticism from geopolitical experts over its underlying irony.

On one hand, these Khalistani activists aggressively spew hate against India and target consular offices, but cry foul over visa restrictions that simply require an undertaking pledging allegiance to India's sovereignty. In fact, several experts have pointed out that every country has such requirements before granting visas, with nations like the United States having a stricter procedure.

WHAT CANADIAN NEWS REPORT SAID?

As per the Global News report, several pro-Khalistani Canadians have claimed that they were made to sign letters denouncing Khalistan separatism and affirming their respect for India as a pre-condition for visas. They have accused India of using visas as a tool for its foreign interference campaign.

One such claim was made by Bikramjit Singh Sandhar, the former president of Guru Nanak Gurdwara in Surrey -- where Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Nijjar was its chief before being killed in June 2023.

Sandhar, a Khalistani sympathiser, told Global News that his visa application in 2016 to attend a family gathering was denied by India. Sandhar claimed Indian consular officials in Vancouver flagged certain statements he made about Khalistan while serving as the gurdwara president.

Days later, Sandhar claimed he was asked to sign a form renouncing separatist activities and professing his "deep respect" for India. He was to sign the form proclaiming India was his "mother country", "great" and "democratic". However, Sandhar said he refused to sign the form.

Global News said similar forms were sent to other pro-Khalistani Canadian Sikhs by Indian consulate staff in Vancouver in exchange for a visa. Those who signed the form were granted entry.

GEOPOLITICAL EXPERTS, ANALYSTS TAKE SARCASTIC SWIPES

The report has sparked a debate on social media, with several political commentators and geopolitical experts pointing out the irony of the resentment of these activists who berate India day in, day out, but play the victim card when denied visas.

Calling it a "wild story", popular Canadian political expert Daniel Bordman took a sarcastic dig at the indignation of the pro-Khalistani Sikhs, saying he was "baffled" by the concept of a country having "control of the people they let through their boarders".

"Can you believe that India had the audacity to require a man who ran a temple with pictures all over it praising mass murdering terrorists as hero's and a giant billboard calling to assassinate Indian government officials outside to fill out a form denouncing terrorism before allowing him to enter India! A form!!! He could have gotten carpal tunnel syndrome! Their cruelty has no limits," Bordman said.

A geopolitical analyst pointed out on X that every country asks this sort of question before granting a visa. "No one likes a bad apple coming into their country... My issue is with news channels here in Canada, don't they research properly before posting?" the analyst posted on X.

Pointing out the hypocrisy, another user tweeted that Canada demands Indian military personnel to disclose the places they served in the country for visas. "They don't require anything like this from terrorists," the user said.

Another tweeted, "Do you know while applying for US Visas one has to provide details of social media subscribed to?"

I have noticed a sudden drop in the aggressive tone of the Khalistani people in the last month. Classic nature of the stupid bully , who is not tough until someone punches him on the face which is what they got finally when the Sanatanis finally united against them after decades of silence in Canada. What the government and agencies of Bharat failed to do in decades, the Sanatanis of Canada did it by themselves.

Also, I have also noticed a sudden increase in Bharat loyalist sikhs who are actively expressing their disgust for the Khalistani people and distancing from them.

The Khalistani movement is facing severe phainty on the streets in Canada and on the digital media. They’re going back to their hole it seems.

Due credit also to the Haryanvi Jaat & Gurjar community brothers who showed the aggressive side of Sanatan to the Jatt Sikhs supporters of Khalistan movement.

It’s been a total collective effort, the Gujjus bhais provided the financial support, Haryanvi bhais provided the sotta treatment on the streets and the Techie bhais in the South supported in their full capacity.

Long live the brave soldiers of Sanatan.

Regular Sikhs in Punjab are genuinely fearing that these idiotic Khalistanis might end up recreating a 1984 type situation.

The stupid Khalistanis keep talking about killing Indira Gandhi, all that the people in Punjab and Delhi remember is how that event led to the killing of so many innocent Sikhs by the bloodthirsty mob. How is that anything to boast about? Brain dead people.
 

US committed to security of Indian envoy' : American Embassy Spokesperson on Khalistani threats​


In a firm statement addressing recent threats against Indian Ambassador to the U.S., Vinay Mohan Kwatra, a U.S. Embassy spokesperson emphasised, “The U.S. government is firmly committed to the security and safety of all diplomatic and consular personnel in the United States.”

The threats, issued by Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, leader of the banned Khalistani group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), have raised serious concerns. In a video message, Pannun accused Ambassador Kwatra of being the face of the "India-Russia terror nexus," claiming he is under surveillance by pro-Khalistan groups. Pannun alleged that Kwatra has been coordinating with Russian diplomats to counter Khalistani activism in North America.

The U.S. government, taking such threats seriously, reaffirmed its commitment to ensuring the safety of Indian diplomats and others serving in the country.

Pannun’s accusations extend to Russian diplomats, threatening retaliation for alleged intelligence sharing with India about Khalistani movements. His rhetoric adds to the strain following incidents such as the attack on the Indian consulate in San Francisco in 2023.

These threats underscore escalating tensions involving Khalistani separatists and diplomatic missions abroad, reflecting broader geopolitical complexities and the need for robust international collaboration to ensure the safety of diplomatic personnel.

Canada gave no proof to back allegations: Government slams anti-India narrative​


Minister of State for External Affairs Kirti Vardhan Singh, responding to a question by Congress MP Manish Tewari in the Lok Sabha, stated that Canada has provided "no evidence whatsoever" to back the "serious allegations" it has made against India. Singh's written response came during a session where the government was asked about its stance on criminal cases allegedly involving Indian citizens in Canada and their potential impact on bilateral ties.

"Persisting with such a narrative can only be harmful for any stable bilateral relationship. The Government has repeatedly urged the Canadian authorities to take action against anti-India elements operating from their soil," Singh said in his response.

The minister assured the House that India was fully committed to protecting its nationals abroad, adding, "The welfare, safety, and security of Indian nationals, who are living, working, and studying in the US and Canada, remains of utmost importance to the Government of India."

He reiterated that issues concerning Indian nationals were regularly brought to the attention of the respective authorities for swift resolution.

Tewari also sought clarity on the government's diplomatic engagements with the United States and Canada to address these concerns. Singh confirmed that India had "repeatedly urged the Canadian authorities to take action against anti-India elements operating from their soil."

The discussion in Parliament follows a sharp escalation in tensions between India and Canada, triggered by allegations from the Canadian government.

Canada has accused Indian diplomats of involvement in the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil. Canadian authorities claimed that senior Indian officials were aware of the plot, alleging that India had a direct role in his assassination.

India has categorically denied these allegations, labelling them baseless and unsupported.

Meanwhile, the United States has alleged that Vikash Yadav, also known as Vikas Yadav, a former Indian intelligence officer previously affiliated with the Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW), was the covert central figure behind a failed assassination attempt targeting Gurpatwant Pannun, a Khalistani terrorist and the founder of the banned organisation Sikhs For Justice.

Canada Introduces Changes In Express Entry System, Indian Aspirants Likely To Be Impacted

Canada has announced a major shift in its Express Entry system under which the candidates applying for permanent residency starting spring next year will no longer receive additional points for holding a job offer.

The move is likely to impact the Indian nationals seeking to move to the North American country in search of better job opportunities.

Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, said that the government is taking steps to “reduce fraud" while also continuing to bring in skilled labour.

“Immigration has always been a cornerstone of Canada’s success, and we remain committed to welcoming the best and brightest to Canada so that everyone has access to the quality jobs, homes and supports they need to thrive," he said.

Once the programme comes into effect, all Express Entry aspirants, including those currently working in the country temporarily, will be impacted. However, those who have already received invitations to apply or whose applications for PR to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) are in process will not be affected under the new scheme.

The government’s latest move will apply to all candidates holding job offers – both current and new ones – under the Express Extry.

Canada’s premier immigration system, Express Entry, oversees applications for permanent residency through various programs, including the Federal Skilled Worker Program, the Federal Skilled Trades Program, the Canadian Experience Class, and selected streams of the Provincial Nominee Program.

India maintained its dominance in Express Entry invitations in 2023, with 52,106 Indian nationals receiving invitations to apply for permanent residency, accounting for 47.2% of the total issued that year. However, the potential removal of job-offer points—currently adding 50 to 200 points—could pose significant challenges for applicants from India and other countries.

Pro-Khalistan protests erupt during Indian foreign minister's US visit​

Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar met United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan during his visit to the US.

Following the meetings, pro-Khalistan protests gained momentum in Washington. The protesters accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government of committing global killings and operating espionage networks against Sikhs in Western countries.

The demonstrators in Washington chanted slogans such as "End Modi Politics" while demanding sanctions and justice for the killings of Sikh activists.

Moreover, the protesters alleged that Jaishankar supported targeting Sikh activists and backing extrajudicial killings.

They claimed that his visit primarily aimed to protect the alliance between Modi and industrialist Gautam Adani.

Not really. It seems even conservative party has Khalistan sympathizers. Perhaps not as overtly as the Liberal party. At the end of the day, both parties need the Sikh votes.
India will be wise to establish good relations with conservative party and its leaders.

If India is smart, they should work with Canada and its embassies in India in limiting the visas that are issued to Indians who want to move to Canada as fake students and plumbers. Proper background check needs to be done before someone tries to move to Canada as a political refugee.
 
The movement is here to stay, Trudeau like his father did promote it yes, but movement is here to stay biggest reason is Punjab productivity in India is among lowest right , filled with short cuts , drugs everything bad a society can have, they will blame Central government but reason is definitely themselves.

‘No consequences’: Canadian Sikhs allege widespread threats, spying by India​


Witnesses told the Hogue Commission behind closed doors India had threatened their families, spied on temples and meddled in Canada’s elections, according to the newly unsealed documents.

India “interferes in Canada because there is no reason not to,” one witness told the commission, adding that “the Canadian government has been largely impotent in the face of interference.”

“There have been no consequences.”

The documents summarize hundreds of written submissions received from Canadians during public consultations and meetings with more than 100 members of diaspora communities.

They included Chinese, Iranian and Ukrainian participants, but the statements of Sikh Canadians are particularly noteworthy, providing a community-level view of the alleged tactics of the Indian government.

Indian foreign interference has seen “an acceleration” since Prime Minister Narendra Modi came to power in 2014, with high-ranking officials vowing that “dissidents in other countries would be eliminated,” one witness said.

Story continues below advertisement
Canada has labeled India the second most serious foreign interference threat to the country, behind only China. India’s campaign focuses largely on the Khalistan movement, which advocates for independence for the Sikh-majority Punjab region.

In the documents, a witness said that after he attended a protest outside India’s high commission in Ottawa, police in India visited his family and threatened his mother and brother, who was forced to flee to Dubai.

Other witnesses described attempts to sway elections, and alleged India “exerts influence in the Canadian political party nomination process,” and applies pressure to “red light” candidates critical of the Republic of India, or ROI.

“Certain attendees discussed the consequences faced by political candidates who publicly speak out against the ROI’s human rights record or advocate on behalf of the Sikh community,” the commission wrote.
