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.
Never thought I’d read a statement like that from someone who was serious.
Indian with it’s assassins and cult government…
In fairness to Modi, Canada is already well known as a haven to clean dirty money.
For the moron downvoters. I can be a proud Canadian and still admit we have a problem.

Not sure why this is getting downvoted, the Canadian housing market has been the place to park foreign money for years. Is one of the main reasons why Vancouver is so expensive. You can correlate the price of housing in BC to Xi’s crackdowns, Brexit, or MBS taking over in Saudi. Also true for BTC.
Send some goofball nephew from China/India/Russia/etc. to school at Simon Frasier or whatever D-tier local school is in Richmond BC so that the proiperty is occupied, then take a reverse mortgage out against that and buy more property. Funnel money through said nephew to pay off the mortgage, then rent out the other properties. Or create shell companies in BC, have them cut deals with foreign companies, fail to deliver, lose a court case, and then have the court rulings sent to the BC company tax free since settlements aren’t taxed.
Generally true in the GTA, and the big Alberta cities to lesser extents.
Having worked in corporate finance for years, anecdotally it was always explained that with China as an example people would purchase real estate because it was the hardest thing for the CCP to claw back once the money left China. If the CCP wants what you own, they will take it. They can’t easily take back 100 apartments in downtown Surrey.
