Canada is emphasizing on improving relations with India!
Canada is trying to improve relations with India. The statement given by Deputy minister of Foreign Affairs David Morrison clearly states that canada respects India's territorial integrity and supports the policy of One india Policy. This statement can be considered part of an effort to improve the strained relations between india and canada, especially when the relations between the two countries soured after the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
Commenting on the activities of pro-Khalistan elements in canada, Morrison said that such activities are terrible. However, these are legal in our country, as they come under the rights of freedom of expression. However, he emphasized that Canada's policy is clear towards the integrity of India.
Tension increased after Nijjar's murder
The Canadian minister's statement can be seen as an attempt to bring the continuously deteriorating bilateral relations between the two countries to a common level, as tensions between the two countries had increased in recent years over issues such as pro-Khalistan activities and Nijjar's murder. Emphasizing on the pro-Khalistan movement and freedom of expression in canada, Ottawa said that it also favors taking strict action against hatred and violence.
