Ottawa, Sep 22 (IANS): Canada on Friday said there is no place for hate in the country amid circulation of an online video in which Hindu Canadians are told to leave the country.

Public Safety Canada, the department responsible for safety of public said, "the circulation of video is offensive and hateful, and is an affront to all Canadians and the values we hold dearly."

 

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Public Safety Canada said: "There is no place in Canada for hate. The circulation of an online video in which Hindu Canadians are told to leave Canada is offensive and hateful, and is an affront to all Canadians and the values we hold dearly."

"Acts of aggression, hate, intimidation or incitement of fear have no place in this country and only serve to divide us. We urge all Canadians to respect one another and follow the rule of law. Canadians deserve to feel safe in their communities," it said.

The video was circulated at a time when India and Canada are enmeshed in a diplomatic row over Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau allegation of involvement of Indian intelligence and the state in the killing of Canadian citizen and Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who was killed in June in British Columbia. Nijjar was declared designated terrorist by India in 2020.

India had rejected claims by the Canada government terming them as "absurd and motivated".

    Who has given authority to Khalistani separatists living as citizens in Canada to threaten Hindus living in Canada as legal citizens to leave Canada?????. This is exact true copy of what BJP is doing to minorities in India when elections are around the corner. Canada’s elections are due in a year’s time and Justin Trudeau’s minority govt is losing popularity, Trudeau has neither presented any proof of murder of Nijjar nor he is taking action against his Sikh MPs for issuing threats to Hindus. Trudeau and Modi are power hungry, money stealer and anti constitutionals.
