Petition to the House of Commons

Whereas:
  • The Air India bombings of June 23, 1985, that left 331 people dead was the worst tragedy in the history of aviation terror before 9/11;
  • The victims’ families continue to wait for justice and closure;
  • The Sikhs in Canada widely believe that this was the handiwork of a foreign intelligence to discredit their political activism and undermine their advocacy work for human rights in India;
  • The recent developments within the Sikh community in British Columbia give credence to this perception;
  • The Canadian government is looking into growing foreign interference in its political affairs;
  • The Sikhs are living under fear since the murder of Surrey Delta Gurdwara President Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June 2023; and
  • On September 18, 2023, the Prime Minister of Canada stated that there are credible allegations of a link between agents of the Government of India and the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
We, the undersigned, citizens and permanent residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to order a fresh inquiry into the Air India episode to determine whether any foreign intelligence was involved in the crime.
