India has made a big mistake in thinking of carrying out criminal activities against Canadian citizens. India's involvement in dozens of criminal acts, including extortion and murder, against South Asian Canadians in Canada cannot be underestimated. The Indian government made a fundamental mistake in thinking that it could support criminal activities, including murder, against Canadian citizens on Canadian soil. He said, “I spoke to PM Modi last week and told him how important is the meeting of the National Security Advisors of the two countries in Singapore this week.” He knew about this meeting and I stressed that this meeting needed to be taken seriously.
Meanwhile, Canadian journalist Daniel Bordom has raised questions about the credibility and leadership of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. He said that Khalistani elements are taking full advantage of this situation. They are considering this controversy as their victory and are attacking India. Canadians are extremely disappointed by Trudeau's decision. Most Canadians are fed up with this government. They do not trust government institutions, the media and Justin Trudeau. Many Canadians will probably side with India on this issue.
