No country can have a good faith relationship with India. Today marks a significant shift for not only India-Canada relations, but the way the world will see the tyrannical Indian govt. Killing Sikh Canadians on Canadian soil is an affront to our rights & international law.

The assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar is not just a Canada-India issue, it's a global one. As America and other Five Eyes allies give Canada support, we are looking at the tip of the iceberg as far as geopolitical fallout goes for this Indian aggression and crime.

Mr. Anand, have you ever put out a statement or tweet in commemoration of the 1984 Sikh Genocide? It doesn't appear so. If you want Sikhs & Hindus to come together, as you say here, it starts by acknowledging what happened & how Sikhs remember it. 1984 was religious persecution.

The insecurity of India knows no bounds. The mere sight of Sikhs with Shastars at the Darbar Sahib Complex, which is perfectly aligned with Sikhi, is enough to trigger genocidal musings. The mere mention of Punjab's rights and grievances is enough to call for state violence.

I would urge every Canadian citizen to sign this Parliamentary petition (sponsored by @MelissaLantsman ) to push back against anti-Hindu rhetoric and action in Canada. Khalistanis harassment/attacks on Hindu Canadians is well-documented and widespread.

Sikhs everywhere should be standing in support of and in solidarity with Tamils over what they are going through at the hands of an oppressive Sri Lankan government. A lot of similarities between India and Sri Lanka. A lot of similarities in our respective struggles.

The hilariously sad thing about India's arguments on why Hardeep Singh Nijjar was "fair game" is that their entire claim is based on disinformation. There never was an "arms training camp" in Canada. The video used to "prove" it is not even of Nijjar. That's India for you.

Call it the Modi Variant, not the Indian Variant. The latter demonizes a diverse group of people that already face regular discrimination. The former, however, correctly calls out the leader that made the decisions that have allowed things to spiral out of control in India.

What we witnessed on Sept 18 makes clear that Khalistan and the advocacy around it is not "fringe" nor is it something that "no one cares about". What the referendum did, if nothing else, is torpedo the argument that the issue of Sikh sovereignty is a dead one. What a turnout.
