One point Arya does not mention is that the Public Inquiry into Foreign Interference which took place earlier this year also revealed India likely used “clandestine activities” to interfere with Canada’s 2021 federal election.
Arya’s suggestion that India fund and support right-wing think tanks and political actors in Canada echo intelligence reports that came to light during the inquiry, including one report which stated Canada’s spy agency has a “body of intelligence” indicating Indian “proxy agents may have attempted to interfere in democratic processes,” something that reportedly includes “the clandestine provision of illicit financial support to various Canadian politicians.”
The report suggests the secret funds are designed to “secure the election of pro-(Government of India) candidates or gaining influence over candidates who take office.”
Stop interfering with other people’s elections, assholes.
nooo don’t vote for pp
Like foreign despotic and authoritarian people promoting a local party isn’t the biggest reddest flag. Like okay, I at least know who to warn people about.
It’s the worst endorsement, but these people are too stupid to realise that.
