Then problem solved! If there are no separatists there is nobody to offer asylum to!



It is that simple. Canada is not learning. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G76aXJOWkAA4CNy?format=jpg&name=...


Most of the asylum claims came before CY2025, which is when the false asylum crackdown began in Canada [0].

A major issue was the Truduea-era diplomatic spat that led to the expulsion of Canadian [1] and Indian [2] diplomatic staff who cooperated on background checks along with an MP in Punjab who ran a "cash for asylum claim" racket [3].

After Carney became PM and Anand became MFA, the Canada-India relationship went back on track, and Trudeau era appointees were largely sidelined.
