Genocide & intergenerational trauma are complex issues. Our answer to them must be thoughtful & compassionate.
I've always been committed to dialogue with those who've experienced such trauma, so that we can move together, toward peace and reconciliation. https://t.co/iW6bgA0Aho
The #AskCanadianSikhs campaign encourage Canadians to directly engage with Sikhs in their communities, and avoid blindly associating all Sikhs with extremism and violence. https://t.co/kIzOEt5oj1

In 1995, #JaswantSinghKhalra was abducted from his home in #Punjab. This was shortly after he refused to take residency in #Canada. He had collected proof of 25,000 cremations of unidentified dead bodies in Punjab. This is story of my people. #AskCanadianSikhs
@defenderofINDIA @theJagmeetSingh@NDP@OntarioNDP Whoa...you managed to speak to
"900K Non-Sikh Canadians of Indian Origin" and they shared their thoughts.
Can you also try to #AskCanadianSikhs what they think? They might actually be more concerned with India's orchestrated killings and state sponsored genocide abuses.
Talk about Sikh history = You're a Separatist
Talk about 1984 Sikh Genocide = You're a Trouble maker
Talk about attack on Harmandir Sahib = You're a Terrorist
A Sikh is prohibited to talk about the above issues ...I cannot & will not stop ! #AskCanadianSikhs
Over the past month the Canadian news media reports have lacked nuance and context and as a result have smeared the Sikh community as radical and extremist. The exclusion of Canadian Sikhs from the discussion has been striking.

I have a lot to say about this news article. #biased on so many levels. You say this doesn't represent Canadian values. Since when does standing up against #Genocide#Oppression#bullying is not considered " Canadian values" https://t.co/tvDlja7mYw
Even the allegation of torture should rattle a lover of democracy & human rights to their inner most core
That's why reports of torture, including electrocution, of Jagtar Singh Johal by Indian Authorities is deeply chilling & requires immediate attention https://t.co/HUxl6eSpzd
