TRUDEAU'S PATHETIC POSTURING WITHOUT PROOF IS SHOWING

BY framing the Hardeep Singh Nijjar murder last year as an infringement on national sovereignty by Indian state actors without proper contextualisation and making bilateral diplomatic ties hostage to its resolution, Canadian PM Justin Trudeau appears to have sunk further in the quicksand of perception.

With his government already reduced to a lame duck minority ahead of general elections next year, knives are out within his party as they see him as a liability. Though Khalistani radical Nijjar had a long criminal record and was wanted in many terror cases in India, Canada let him function freely using the fig leaf of free speech. Opposition leader Maxime Bernier called Trudeau out by dispelling the myth that Nijjar was Canadian. He said he was essentially a foreign terrorist who used fraudulent documents for asylum several times and was somehow granted citizenship in 2007.
