This is not an isolated incident. Trudeau and his liberal party have been embarrassing themselves since they were elected. Many Canadians are beyond tired of this nonsense. The bizarre thing is that there always seems to be a terrorist involved.
From Canada's Global News:
COMMENTARY: Trudeau’s disastrous India trip won’t be forgotten any time soon
There are indeed multiple storylines to this fiasco, but the one that trumps all others by far is the fact that a man
convicted of the attempted murder of an Indian politician in B.C. three decades ago, and who had previously belonged to a banned Sikh extremist group, was
invited to separate events on the PM’s tour.
How on earth does something like this happen? If we’re trying to foster closer economic and political relations with India, pretty much the worst thing we could do is to send a message that we’re cavalier about – or worse, cozy with – Sikh extremists. Job number one should be putting the Indian government at ease about such matters, and the Trudeau government accomplished the exact opposite.
Ahead of Friday’s meeting with India’s prime minister, there were furious attempts by the government to dig themselves out of this mess, which, in keeping with the theme of this trip, really only made matters worse.
Amid the frantic search to find a scapegoat for this whole mess, veteran reporter Kim Bolan (who has covered Sikh extremism for decades and wrote a book about the Air India bombing)
revealed Friday that information about Atwal was passed along to the Canadian Security Intelligence Service a week ago. That’s not the sort of thing that can be blamed on backbenchers or “rogue elements.”
