‘You don’t know Justin Trudeau, there’s another year…’: Canadian journalist’s warning after the attack on the Hindu temple in Brampton

Canadian journalist Daniel Bordman has warned that India-Canada relations could deteriorate in the final year of Justin Trudeau’s term. His comment came hours after Khalistani separatists reportedly attacked devotees near the Hindu Sabha Temple in Brampton, Canada.

Journalist Daniel Bordman talked about the growing mistrust between India and Canada. In October, he highlighted declining confidence in Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s leadership and credibility.

“There are some elements within the Khalistani apparatus, they are all on this… Khalistani elements are in full attack mode. They are taking this as a complete victory and slamming India into the ground,” he told ANI in October.

Bordman noted that India has essentially suspended its relations with Canada, pending a change in Canadian leadership. The attack by Khalistani separatists reportedly took place after a protest turned violent in Brampton. The video shows Khalistani extremists clashing with a counter-protest group waving Indian flags opposing the separatists’ ideology.

The rapid increase in tension led to violent clashes between the two groups. As the situation worsened, Khalistani extremists allegedly began attacking members of the opposition group who tried to escape. Many took shelter in the Hindu Sabha Temple, which later became the target of the incident.

“This is not good… You don’t know Justin Trudeau, it’s another year before he’s gone, so brace yourself, it will probably get worse. I hope a new government comes in and pulls out of this crisis. A lot depends on the US Presidential election… ,” news agency ANI quoted the Canadian writer as saying.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau condemned the latest attack on Hindu devotees, stressing the importance of religious freedom. Trudeau stated that all Canadians have the right to practice their faith safely and without fear.
