As a Canadian organization deeply committed to advancing Canada’s national interests, the Canada India Foundation remains dedicated to fostering strong and mutually beneficial relationships between Canada and India. Our primary focus is on promoting economic, cultural, and policy collaboration that benefits all Canadians, including the vibrant IndoCanadian community.
In these times of diplomatic tension, it is crucial that both nations engage in open dialogue and work toward peaceful resolutions. We firmly believe that maintaining strong bilateral ties is essential for Canada’s security, prosperity, and global standing.
We also recognize the growing threat posed by extremist ideologies that disrupt the fabric of Canadian society and threaten the well-being of our diverse communities, including IndoCanadians. It is vital that we remain vigilant against these divisive forces, which not only strain international relations but also jeopardize the peace, security, and inclusivity that are core to Canada’s identity.
As Indo-Canadians, we stand unequivocally with our government in its efforts to ensure justice is served, and that Canadians are fully informed of the truth. To ensure the stability and harmony of Canadian society and to rebuild trust internationally, it is essential that cases involving violence, extremism, and blatant abuse of Canada’s generous immigration system be pursued with greater urgency and transparency.
There are numerous unresolved cases, such as the Air India bombing, the ongoing desecration of Hindu places of worship, hate speech targeting minorities and threatening them to leave Canada with continuous threats, bullying, and intimidation by extremist groups that pursue foreign agendas using Canadian soil at the expense of Canada’s national interests. The call for justice must not be limited to a select few with influence within the system, but should extend to all Canadians affected by these acts.
As we navigate the current diplomatic tensions, we advocate for peaceful dialogue and a firm commitment to protecting the safety and security of all Canadians. It is only through decisive action and accountability that we can ensure justice, strengthen our communities, and foster a future of trust and cooperation between Canada and India.
