Ongoing conflict between Sikh Khalistani activists and Hindu groups in Ontario was raised in the House of Commons on Nov. 5, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau condemning the violence and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre blaming the government for the divisions.
“The individuals who are inciting violence, division and hatred in no way represent either the Sikh community or the Hindu community in Canada,” Trudeau said on Nov. 5. “We will continue to stand for the unity of Canadians,” he added.
