A Canadian group advocating for an independent Sikh state in India says the federal government has put all Sikh Canadians in jeopardy by listing Sikh extremism as one of five major terrorist threats in this country.
The group wrote to Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau this week, asking them to remove the language entirely from the report. They are also starting a letter writing campaign to all MPs, urging community members to start lobbying their local MPs on the matter. Scott Bardsley, a spokesman for Goodale, said Thursday, there will be more to say about the results of that review “very soon.”He said the report mentions “Sikh extremist ideologies and movements,” but does not say all Khalistanis are extremists.
“The combination of highlighting the supposed threat of Khalistani terrorists and the notable absence of any public comment on the rights of Sikh sovereigntists sends the inescapable message that the Canadian Government believes that pro-Khalistan activists are terrorists,” Pannun wrote to Goodale and Trudeau this week.
