Indian foreign ministry claims ‘security threats’ after Trudeau’s explosive allegation of state-sponsored killing mean it cannot provide visa services safely
India says it is indefinitely suspending visa services in all categories for all Canadian nationals due to “security threats” to its consulates, amid a furious diplomatic row between the two countries.
Indian foreign ministry spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said they have suspended “all categories” of visas, including e-visas and for Canadian citizens applying from third countries.
And India has also moved to downsize the Canadian diplomatic presence in New Delhi, saying that Canada has more embassy workers in its capital than visa versa and that it wants to restore “parity”.
It comes after Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau said there were “credible allegations” of the Indian state’s involvement in the murder of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada, triggering a furious tit-for-tat row.
Canada is hurting right now by taking in so many immigrants, primarily from India. Many companies are using it to suppress wages. Its causing huge strain on housing were kids today will not own a home without assistance from a family member. Its baffling the amount of immigrants Canada is bringing in.
We need immigrants because there is not enough people to fill jobs.
It’s not just jobs, Canada is extremely underpopulated for its size. There’s literally more people in the state of California than all of Canada.
Canada has a higher population than California.

The majority of Canada isn’t populated due to extreme climate and miminal arable lands.
There’s people living in the artics and tundras of Canada. As far as arable land, you actually think the world’s second largest country by mass isn’t arable?
As far as population you are right though, their population did just recently surpass California.
Roughly 5% of Canada is arable.

Roughly 150,000 people live in the artic and tundra. The majority of them are indigenous. 0.003% of the population of Canada.
Weird since we have a ton of people with student debt and no jobs
Unemployment is at all time lows across Canada. Fuck off.
I’m not saying you’re wrong but I’d love to know why there are so many more homeless people and intersection beggars in my city than I’ve seen in almost 40 years, if that’s true.
This wasn’t meant to be related to the post we are commenting on, just a casual observation/question.
Edit: I ask a question and get downvotes. You people are fucking hopeless.
Unemployment and homelessness are not related.
The majority of Canada’s homeless population also work. The majority of Canada’s homeless population only spends a few months homeless.
The last 40 years you say?
(this is the US but we’re heavily influenced by them. I doubt ours is any different)
lol
Canada, without immigration, has a replacement of 1.4. This means that for every 2 Canadian adults only 1.4 are produced. This is a NEGATIVE replacement rate. A rate of 2.1 is consider minimum viable.
It really isn’t.
Without immigrants Canada would eventually cease to have a population and disappear as a nation.
