Canada’s Trudeau Doubles Down on Sikh’s Assassination By India
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has stated once again that there are “credible allegations” to think that Indian operatives were involved in the assassination of a Sikh separatist on Canadian soil.
He made the claim on Monday, which India fiercely denied, calling it “absurd.”
Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who India declared a terrorist in 2020, was killed in June outside a temple. Following the allegation, tensions between the two countries have risen.
The Indian government has frequently reacted harshly to demands for Khalistan, or a separate Sikh nation, made by Sikh separatists in Western countries.
Though India labelled Nijjar a terrorist, his admirers argue that he was a peaceful activist who supported the desire for a separate country for Sikhs.
Mr Trudeau’s charge has fueled an ugly diplomatic squabble between India and Canada, two countries that have long maintained close ties and solid commercial connections. Both nations have removed a diplomat from the other, and India suspended visa services for Canadians on Thursday.
Meanwhile, Canada has decreased its diplomatic staff in India after several diplomats received threats on social media.
Mr Trudeau talked to reporters on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York on Thursday, repeating some of his past comments.
“As I stated on Monday, there are credible reasons to believe that agents of the Indian government were involved in the killing of a Canadian on Canadian soil,” he said, adding that the country is standing up for the “rules-based international order that we believe in.”
When pressed to characterize “how extensive and solid” the evidence was, Justin Trudeau declined to offer a direct answer, instead stating that Canada has a “rigorous and independent justice system” and that “we allow those justice processes to unfold with the utmost integrity.”
He further stated that he made the decision to share these allegations “with the utmost seriousness.”
When asked whether Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi had confirmed or refuted the claims, Trudeau said he had a “direct and frank conversation” with Modi “in which I shared my concerns in no uncertain terms.”
Justin Trudeau was in India for the G20 summit earlier this month, and he had a contentious encounter with Mr Modi.
After that, India made a harsh statement in which it expressed “strong concerns about the continuing anti-India activities of extremist elements in Canada,” accusing them of “promoting secessionism and inciting violence against Indian diplomats.”
Mr. Trudeau stated that Canada will always defend “freedom of expression” while combating intolerance.
Arindam Bagchi, a spokesperson for India’s foreign ministry, told reporters hours before Mr Trudeau’s news conference on Thursday that India has made it clear that “we are willing to look at any specific information that is provided to us.” But we haven’t gotten any such particular information yet.”
The charges made by Canada have alarmed the United Kingdom, Australia, and the United States.
On Thursday, US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan stated that the US was in close contact with its Canadian colleagues and had also spoken with the Indian government.
“I categorically reject the notion that there is a schism between the United States and Canada.” We are deeply concerned about the claims, and we want to see this inquiry continue and the culprits held accountable,” he said.
Meanwhile, The United States’ Ambassador to Canada, David Cohen, acknowledged that “shared intelligence among Five Eyes partners” had alerted Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to the possibility of Indian operatives being involved in the assassination of a Canadian citizen.
CBC News reported separately on Thursday that the Canadian government gathered intelligence from both human and electronic sources during a months-long probe into the murder.

Watchdog Claims That US Control Over Boeing Aircraft Output Is Insufficient.
(VOR News) – On Friday, a government watchdog expressed its Boeing disapproval of the control that the government Aviation Administration (FAA) exercises over the production of airplanes by Boeing.
The watchdog stated that the FAA did not have an effective mechanism to monitor the individual manufacturing facilities of the United States company that manufactures airplanes.
The FAA monitors “discrepancies and noncompliances within the Boeing production line.”
This statement was made by the office of the inspector general of the transportation department. In addition, the report said that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not addressed the long-standing flaws in Boeing’s control of suppliers, despite the fact that these hazards have been recognized for a considerable amount of time.
Despite the fact that Boeing is unable to resolve a strike by its employees, struggles to regain the faith of the industry in some of its aircraft and systems as a result of a string of accidents and incidents, and was forced to bring back its spacecraft from the International Space Station while leaving its astronaut crew behind due to safety concerns, the company is continuing to face a significant number of challenges in the business world.
Following the explosion of a door plug that was lacking crucial fasteners on a new Alaska Airlines 737 Max 9 airplane at 16,000 feet in January, the oversight of Boeing by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has been subjected to greater scrutiny. This is because the door plug was missing essential fasteners.
In response to this incident, the Department of Justice has begun an investigation into possible criminal activity.
There were sixteen recommendations for enhancements included in the report. All of them were accepted by the Federal Aviation Administration, which remarked that it “is committed to continuously improving our oversight processes.” All of them were accepted.
According to a statement made by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the agency “is currently conducting a comprehensive, systemwide review of our oversight models.”
According to the findings of the investigation, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had not been successful in resolving charges of excessive pressure that were placed on Boeing staff who were acting on behalf of the FAA in a given amount of time.
The reason for this was that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had not enforced the requirements that Boeing furnish information that was adequate in relation to the claims.
In the absence of an instant response, Boeing did not offer a comment.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) “has yet to move from a reactive approach focused on addressing individual manufacturing issues to a more proactive, data-driven model to identify and address risk within Boeing’s manufacturing processes at all levels,” according to the report that evaluated the monitoring of Boeing 737 and 787.
This statement was made in reference to the FAA’s response to the monitoring of Boeing 737 and 787.
There have been a number of studies that have been released over the course of the past several years that have brought attention to complaints regarding the FAA’s regulation of Boeing.
The surveillance of the FAA was criticized by a United States Senate committee that was investigating the culture of Boeing at the end of the previous month. The committee cited papers that were obtained during an ongoing investigation as the basis for their criticism.
A month ago, it was reported that Mike Whitaker, the administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), will be modifying the personal safety management program that the agency uses. He has previously said that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had “too hands off” oversight over the actions of Boeing.
He did something that had never been done before: he forbade Boeing from raising the manufacturing of the 737 Max until the corporation had produced significant enhancements to the product’s quality. This was an action that had never been taken before.

Trudeau Commits $25-Million for Charities in Lebanon, One Allegedly Linked to Terrorism
Canada is increasing its humanitarian aid package for Lebanon by an additional $15 million, raising the total to $25 million in response to the escalating conflict between Israel and the Lebanon-based militant group Hezbollah.
International Development Minister Ahmed Hussen announced that the newly allocated funds will support both Canadian and international aid organizations in delivering essential services such as food, water, emergency health care, and other forms of assistance in Lebanon, although specific distribution details remain to be finalized.
“The impact of this conflict on civilians in Lebanon and beyond is devastating,” Mr. Hussen stated during a press briefing. “Today, Canada has announced a commitment of $25 million to bolster humanitarian efforts aimed at aiding the most vulnerable civilians in Lebanon.”
The recent announcement of $15 million in new funding adds to the $10 million in aid previously disclosed by Mr. Hussen at the end of September.
He stated that $6 million of the previously announced funds will be allocated to both the Red Cross and the Humanitarian Coalition, which comprises 11 charities, to match up to $3 million each in donations received for their respective Lebanon aid initiatives.
His commitment to the Humanitarian Coalition persists even in light of allegations against one of its member charities, Islamic Relief, which is accused of funding Hamas and maintaining connections to the Muslim Brotherhood. In 2014, the United Arab Emirates classified Islamic Relief as a terrorist organisation.
Mr. Hussen reported that over 2,000 individuals have lost their lives in Lebanon, including two Canadians, with thousands more suffering injuries. The ongoing conflict has exerted considerable strain on the humanitarian organizations operating in the region.
He emphasized the urgent need for food, medicine, shelter materials, and emergency health care in Lebanon.
On Wednesday, Global Affairs Canada announced that it has successfully assisted nearly 1,050 Canadians, permanent residents, and their immediate family members in departing from Lebanon. It reports that it has also assisted approximately 250 individuals from various countries in departing Lebanon.
The agency reports a decline in new requests for information on departure options, now receiving fewer than 100 each day. All eligible travellers have been provided with departure opportunities, have already departed, or are scheduled to leave in the upcoming days.
According to Global Affairs Canada, a total of 205 individuals departed from Lebanon on Monday and Tuesday.
As of October 8, over 25,000 Canadians were officially registered in Lebanon; however, officials indicated that the actual figure could be greater, as registration is not mandatory. Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly has indicated that there are approximately 45,000 Canadians currently in the country.
On Wednesday, Mr. Hussen once again urged Canadians to evacuate Lebanon. A representative for Immigration Minister Marc Miller stated that the current priority is assisting Canadian citizens and permanent residents, along with their spouses and children, in obtaining the necessary travel documents.
“Additionally, we are focusing on the processing of specific categories of family class permanent resident applications,” stated spokeswoman Renee Proctor in an e-mailed statement.

Trump Media Stock Is Up 100% From Its Recent Low As The DJT Continues To Rise On Heavy Trade.
(VOR News) – On Thursday morning, the shares of Trump Media resumed their upward trend, reaching a high of 19% for the fourth consecutive day.
This continued the momentum of a resurgence that has succeeded in recouping a fraction of the huge losses that the Truth Social operator experienced during a recent sell-off that lasted for several weeks. There has been a significant length of time that has passed since this growth began.
A little over two weeks ago, DJT stock had reached an intraday trading low of $11.75; but, immediately after the market opened, it was selling at more than $24 per share, which is more than double the price that it had reached at that point.
Since then, the stock of Trump Media DJT has increased by more than twice.
It was notable because it corresponded with a number of recent polls on the presidential election as well as other indicators that fans of former President Donald Trump, who is the largest stakeholder in the company, perceived to be encouraging signs.
This was the reason why it was significant. An increase was seen in spite of the fact that there was very little positive news around the company. Despite this, the growth was recorded.
Trump Media has been referred to as a meme stock by a number of industry professionals. This stock is being bought and sold by supporters of Donald Trump in a substantial chunk of the present market.
These supporters believe that investing in the firm is a way to show their support for the Republican presidential candidate at the same time that they are placing a wager on the possibility that he will win the presidency.
When asked about it in an interview with CNBC, Anne Stevenson-Yang, the founder and research director of short seller J Capital Research, stated that “it does not have anything to do with fundamentals.” This was in response to a question regarding the matter. This was the conclusion that she reached in response to the inquiry.
A single syllable was all that she said when she made her declaration, and it was, “It’s a bet on Trump.”
During the most recent rise, which occurred during an extraordinarily busy trading session, the volume of Trump Media shares had already surpassed the 30-day average volume, which was approximately 15.1 million shares, as reported by FactSet.
This took place a little over an hour after the market had started business.
Trump Media rose during a busy trading session.
There were already more than 27 million shares of Trump Media that were being traded at the time that the clock struck 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time. This signifies that the market is already active.
As a result of the developments, Trump Media is on track to have its fifth strong day in a straight, and it is also on track to have its best week since late March, when the company had just begun publicly trading after completing a corporate combination with a blank-check firm. Both of these developments are expected to occur.
Both of these achievements are anticipated to take place as a consequence of the advances that have taken place.
More than eighty percent of Trump Media’s value had been erased from its post-merger highs prior to the most recent rise, which represented the completion of a slide that had been underway for some months already. This slide had been occurring for several months. The decrease has been going on for some time.
When the company was initially listed on Nasdaq, the share price reached an intraday high of $79.38 per share immediately after the listing. The price of the corporation, on the other hand, has remained far lower than that high level. This was the situation beginning on Thursday and ongoing.
