BREAKING | Adrienne Watson, White House National Security Council Spokesperson, confirmed in a tweet that the USA is closely coordinating and consulting with Canada on the Indian assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar. America is also engaging the Indian government.
BREAKING | NDP Leader @theJagmeetSingh has written to Marie-Josee Hogue, the Commissioner of the Inquiry into Foreign Interference, to include an "examination of India's foreign interference in Canada in the work of the Inquiry" in light of yesterday's revelations concerning the assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
Today we learned of allegations that agents of the Indian Government murdered Hardeep Singh Nijjar — a Canadian killed on Canadian soil.
To all Canadians, this is my vow.
I will leave no stone unturned in the pursuit of justice, including holding Narendra Modi accountable.
This is a historic moment. A confirmation of what Sikhs have known for months. India has assassinated a Sikh Canadian in Canada for peacefully practicing his rights.
This is foreign interference to the extreme. An attack on our people and values. Our government must answer.
BREAKING | @melaniejoly, Canada's Foreign Affairs Minister, shared that a high-ranking Indian diplomat has been expelled over the connection between the Indian government and the assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
BREAKING | PM @JustinTrudeau confirms today in Parliament that Canadian intelligence believes that the Indian state was involved in the unprecedented assassination of Canadian Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil.
Trudeau called extrajudicial actions by India a serious infringement of "Canadian sovereignty" and contrary to international law. Sources share that serious ramifications are anticipated.
Today's revelations were also behind the pausing of trade talks and deteriorated relations between Trudeau and Modi at the G20.
BREAKING | @diljitdosanjh's Shaheed Jaswant Singh Khalra biopic, "Punjab ’95", has been removed from the Toronto International Film Festival's lineup according to reports. The movie no longer appears on @TIFF_NET's website.
Twitter founder @jack shared in an interview with Breaking Points that India threatened to shut down Twitter, raid homes of employees, and more if Twitter didn't censor tweets and users supportive of the #FarmersProtest.
Under @elonmusk, Twitter did ban and censor accounts at the behest of the Indian government to a greater degree during the operation against Amritpal Singh and other Sikh activists.
This is Jack Dorsey, former CEO of twitter.
Here he is saying “During farmer protest Indian govt pressurised us and said we will shut down twitter, raid the homes of your employees if you don’t follow the suite”
And India is world’s largest democracy.
This is not my India 💔
The current situation in Punjab, India is extremely concerning for the Sikh community. The govt has shutdown the internet. Video evidence shows the police have occupied much of the state. Activist social media accounts have been banned. Never a good sign. Praying for everyone 🙏🏽
BREAKING | Ripudaman Singh Malik has been shot dead in Surrey, Canada. Police reports are still coming in, but early reports suggest he was shot dead in his car. He was the founder of Khalsa Credit Union, and was acquitted in 2005 in connection to the 1985 Air India bombing case.
A single post cant express the fan boy I was of Johnny Zee, the joy from hearing Stereo Nation & the honour it was to produce music for him.
A legend, a visionary, game changer and will miss his WhatsApp broadcast food messages.
Forever original, Rest In Peace
Vade Veer 🙏🏽
It's tempting to equate or compare the #FarmersProtest with the #TruckersConvoy2022, especially considering how some of it feels familiar from the images & videos. The disruption, the siege, the permanence of it.
However, the souls & essence of the two are very different.
