Dr. Hewage's claims regarding Canadian court ruling on ‘Tamil genocide' denied
The Island
|April 09, 2025
Appropos front-page news item 'Bid to include genocide allegation against Sri Lanka in Canada's school curriculum thwarted' in the March 31, 2025, edition of The Island, Viresh Fernando, CA, CPA, Barrister and Solicitor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, has sent us the following statement:
-
In 2021, the Provincial Legislature of Ontario passed a Bill, titled Tamil Genocide Education Week Act. The legislation, popularly known as "Bill 104," simply assumes that the Tamil people of Sri Lanka were subject to genocide. No evidence was provided or discussed during legislative debate.
The Government of Canada has repeatedly stated that it has no evidence of alleged "Tamil Genocide"
A very small group of relatively uneducated Sinhala Canadians reportedly paid as much as $350,000 (dollars three lakhs fifty thousand) to two white, Canadian, incompetent, and ignorant lawyers to challenge the validity of the legislation. These two incompetent and ignorant lawyers used both the wrong method of legislation nullification and the wrong legal premise.
