On Monday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has sparked the greatest diplomatic quarrel between Canada and India in the history of their bilateral relations. Trudeau reiterated previous claims that Indian diplomats orchestrated the death of Khalistani rebel Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

In a tit-for-tat diplomatic exchange, India recalls six Indian diplomats, including the High Commissioner, and expelled six Canadian diplomats.

Justin Trudeau stated that his government had attempted to collaborate with India, but its response has been to deny, obfuscate, and attack him personally and the integrity of the government of Canada.

Melanie Joly, Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs, stated that sitting Indian diplomats were involved in violent acts that increased following Trudeau’s allegation of India’s possible involvement in the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

India disputed Canada’s charges on Monday, accusing Justin Trudeau’s government of targeting Indian diplomates without justification and threatening their safety. “We have no faith in the current Canadian government’s resolve to secure their safety, New Deli stated yesterday.

The Indian Ministry of External Affairs stated in a statement that the Trudeau government has consciously provided space for violent extremists and terrorists to harass, threaten, and intimidate Indian diplomats and community leaders in Canada.

Trudeau’s Support of the Khalistan separatist movement

Justin Trudeau’s close ties to the Khalistan separatist movement, as well as his sympathies for declared terrorists and extremists who preach hatred, violence, and extremism on Canadian soil, are all intended to appeal to his voter base.

Trudeau’s claims on Monday sparked a firestorm in India, with a vast majority of the country’s 1.4 billion people rallying behind Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, according to (NDTV) New Deli Television News.

NDVT stated that Mr Trudeau is facing a series of political setbacks in Canada and he has frequently supported the Khalistani separatist movement and permitted them to operate in  Canada.

Justin Trudeau has stood shoulder to shoulder with terrorists, fanatics, and separatists at Khalistan demonstrations across Canada, and doing so, he has directly violated India’s national security concerns, as well as India’s sovereignty and territorial integrity by supporting those who want to carve out another nation from India – all under the guise of “free speech in Canada.”

According to New Deli television, Trudeau has lost significant electoral ground in recent months as a major ally, Jagmeet Singh, withdrew support from his party, and Trudeau is attempting to soothe his “voter bank.”

Justin Trudeau has suffered several political losses in recent months. What has alarmed him is that he has lost the backing of his crucial ally, Jagmeet Singh’s party. Singh openly supports ‘Khalistan’.

Political fallout in Canada

Doubts about Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s leadership grew after his ruling Liberal Party suffered two humiliating defeats in a special election, but the unpopular leader is desperate to hold on to power ahead of a national election.

The result, which followed a defeat in Toronto in late June, reinforced the view that the Liberals’ chances in the next national election are bleak. The mandate for Trudeau’s minority administration expires at the end of October 2025, but an early election appears increasingly likely.

Although surveys show the Liberals will lose heavily to the official opposition right-of-center Conservatives in the next election due to dissatisfaction with inflation, healthcare, and the housing crisis, Trudeau and his closest aides insist he is not going anywhere and has time to help the party recover.

Faced with the possibility of losing his position as Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau has launched a series of claims against India in an attempt to polarize the electorate while catering to his vote bank in a desperate attempt to get as much support as possible in order to retain his position.

Claims by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that “safety of Canadians” was discussed when he came face-to-face with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Laos have been rejected by India’s Government.

Trudeau declared during a press conference on Friday that he had addressed tensions between the two nations that had arisen after he accused India of murdering Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil.

An Indian Government spokesperson responded by stating to India Today that there was no substantive discussion between Prime Minister Modi and Prime Minister Trudeau in Laos, and that the two leaders only exchanged greetings when they met in person at the summit.

The government spokesperson stated that India continues to anticipate that anti-India Khalistani activities will not be permitted to occur on Canadian soil and that Mr. Trudeau will take firm action against those advocating violence, extremism, and terrorism against India from Canada, which has been lacking thus far.

The brief exchange between Prime Minister Modi and Justin Trudeau occurred nearly a year after Trudeau accused India of murdering Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Nijjar in Surrey, British Columbia in June 2023.

Trudeau’s accusations despite no evidence have incited outrage in India, resulting in an all-time nadir in bilateral relations.

Hardeep Singh Nijjar Interpol Warrant

In 2020, India officially designated Hardeep Singh Nijjar as a terrorist and accused Justin Trudeau of harboring a wanted terrorist for political gain within Canada’s 700,000-strong Sikh community.

1987 marked the signing of an Extradition Treaty between Canada and India.

Numerous Indians are of the opinion that Mr. Trudeau is politically dependent on the Sikh community, which is both substantial and influential in his country. This belief is well-founded as despite that the 770,000 Sikhs in Canada constitute only 2.1% of the population, their geographic concentration and close-knit community connections grant them disproportionate political influence.

The socialist New Democratic Party, which is led by Jagmeet Singh, a Sikh politician who is widely perceived in India as sympathetic to Sikh radicalism, is the foundation of Justin Trudeau’s minority administration. Singh has been prohibited from entering India since 2013.

Critics contend that Justin Trudeau has for political purposes dismissed security concerns from India regarding radical Sikhs in Canada.

Omer Aziz, a former foreign-policy adviser to Mr. Trudeau, wrote in an op-ed published in the Globe and Mail in Toronto that “Canada should have at least begun to take steps to ensure Canada was not used for terrorist financing.” The sole issue was that Mr. Trudeau was adamant about not losing the Sikh vote to Jagmeet Singh.

In the opinion of Indians, Canada should have extradited Nijjar to India, where he was classified as a terrorist and implicated in a series of severe crimes, including a theater bombing and murder.

India accuses Trudeau of fostering an environment in which Sikh extremists publicly advocate for the murder of Indian diplomats, commemorate the 1984 assassination of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi by her Sikh bodyguards, and urge Canadian Hindus to emigrate.

Millennials in Canada Have Turned their Backs on Justin Trudeau

Millennials in Canada Have Turned their Backs on Justin Trudeau

Justine Trudeau and his Liberal Party are currently engaged in a fierce battle for second place against Jagmeet Singh’s socialist NDP, as both parties find themselves trailing by 20 points behind Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives.

A recent poll indicates that 38% of Canadians consider Trudeau to be the most ineffective leader the nation has encountered in over fifty years. An impressive 47% of Canadian Millennials indicated they would support Poilievre if an election were to take place today, while nearly half of all Canadians express a desire for an election to be called this year.

Pierre Poilievre’s strong appeal among young voters can be attributed primarily to economic factors: soaring inflation, a pressing cost-of-living crisis, and the challenge of housing affordability are pushing many away from the Liberals, who have held power for nearly nine years.

According to UnHeard, Millennials are increasingly distancing themselves from Trudeau due to his stringent measures aimed at controlling the internet to combat alleged disinformation, as well as his climate change initiatives, notably the carbon tax.

An increasing number of Canadians are becoming aware of Trudeau’s ineffective policies and his approach to mass immigration. This past summer, there was significant outrage among parents of teenagers and young adults as they observed their children remaining at home without jobs.

The primary concern stemmed from the fact that most low-skilled and entry-level positions were being filled by unskilled, temporary foreign workers, predominantly from India.

There has been a notable rise in criminal activities linked to international students and unvetted temporary residents who are becoming involved with Punjabi gangs in Canada, contributing to a surge in auto thefts nationwide.

Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives are actively seeking to alter Trudeau’s approach to mass immigration and prioritize the construction of more housing should they come into power.

Significantly, Pierre Poilievre is perceived as more trustworthy than Trudeau, with over half of Canadians characterizing Poilievre as “open and honest about his actions, decisions, and intentions,” while only 39% share that sentiment regarding Trudeau.

The characteristics in question may shed light on Poilievre’s favorable polling, particularly among younger voters and women, who have historically leaned towards the Liberals or the NDP rather than the Conservatives.

The Liberal Party’s support has dwindled to an estimated 7% of Canadians, revealing a significant number of disillusioned voters eager for transformation. Poilievre is emerging as the type of leader that resonates with the desires of many Canadians.
