Amidst the ongoing tension with India, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing the wrath of his own people. On social media, people are demanding to declare a national holiday on Trudeau's departure. They say that Trudeau has escalated the ongoing diplomatic dispute with India instead of resolving it diplomatically, thereby alienating an important partner country, Canada. People's anger on social media flared up further when it was revealed that close aides of Justin Trudeau had first given intelligence regarding India to an American newspaper, while the police held a press conference after that.
Two senior aides of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had shared confidential information related to India with an American newspaper. These include Trudeau's National Security Advisor (NSA) Nathalie Drouin. This information claimed India's 'interference' in Canadian affairs. This disclosure has been made by a Canadian newspaper. This information was given at a time when the Canadian Federal Police alleged that 'agents' of the Indian government work with criminal gangs to target South Asians, especially Khalistani supporters.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) Commissioner Mike Duhem and his deputy Brigitte Gauvin told the media that they believe Indian government 'agents' have ties to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and are involved in the murder of Canadian citizen, Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Involved in murder. Hardeep Singh Nijjar was murdered in June last year. Apart from this, he also accused India of being involved in matters of 'extortion, threats and pressure'. India strongly rejected these allegations and called them 'absurd allegations'. India also said that since the allegations were made, the Canadian government has not shared any concrete evidence with the Indian government, despite repeated requests.
Canadian newspaper sources reported that the American newspaper was instructed not to report anything until Duhem and Gauvin held their press conferences. The newspaper later published reports citing 'Canadian officials' who linked Nijjar's murder to India, although federal police did not. This suggests that senior Canadian officials working under the Trudeau government are passing confidential information to newspapers before passing it on to the police.
A user named Kirk Lubimov on The information was leaked to the Washington Post. A few days later, Trudeau admitted that Canada had no concrete evidence to support the allegations against India. Trudeau left the press conference midway and the rest The work was handled by Mélanie Jolie and Dominique Leblanc.”
The user further wrote, “Meanwhile, Gurpatwant Singh Pannu has made violent threats against our ally India. India considers him a terrorist but Pannu himself has admitted that he is working with Trudeau's office. After this , the Liberal Party blocked a proposal to form a committee of elected officials to investigate the issue and also blocked efforts to probe India's interference. Meanwhile, China is standing on the sidelines laughing at the whole situation.” Another user wrote: “When Poliware beats the Liberals in the next election… it will be a national holiday.”
One user wrote, “I would like to request the Conservative Party to declare a national holiday when this man resigns, loses or is expelled from the party and leaves politics forever.” One user wrote, “Trudeau's mishandling of this situation is shameful. Despite no concrete evidence, being quick to blame India – then stopping the investigation? Meanwhile, pages like “The real threats are not being curbed. And yes, China is having fun.”
