The issue of an indian citizen, now residing in canada, calling for violence or military action against canada is deeply concerning, not only for its potential repercussions on international relations but also in terms of legal and ethical accountability. Such statements often reflect not only a person's extreme dissatisfaction but also a misunderstanding of legal limits and national loyalties.

In canada, freedom of speech allows individuals to express opinions, even those critical of the state, within reasonable boundaries. However, advocating violence, especially calling for another nation’s military intervention, likely crosses the line into hate speech or incitement of violence, which are criminal offenses in both canada and India. This behavior could result in legal repercussions in both countries, depending on the specific laws and how seriously each country views the statements.

If someone were to make a similar demand within India, such as calling for military action against a country without cause, it would indeed be a severe offense. India’s legal framework includes stringent laws like the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) and the National Security Act (NSA), designed to counter threats to national security, public order, and sovereignty. Under the UAPA, any activity that threatens or attempts to disturb the security and sovereignty of India, or that promotes enmity between different groups, is a punishable offense. Such laws aim to prevent the escalation of violence or unrest and ensure the country's stability. An individual making public statements that could provoke violence, or calling for warlike actions, would likely face investigation and serious charges under these laws, as it would be viewed as a threat to national integrity.
