00:00We just know that the name of the victim and that he was shot dead.
00:05But this is just a murder, so this is not that serious to the Toronto police.
00:08Daniel, thank you very much for speaking to A&I.
00:10In a very short notice, I'll begin by quickly asking you,
00:13two Indian students were found murdered in Canada in a fortnight.
00:17What do you know about the matter?
00:19What is the Canadian police doing about it?
00:22The consulate has expressed anguish over it.
00:25What have you learned about this matter so far?
00:26Okay, so, I mean, the two murders are probably not connected
00:30because they're in different provinces, you know,
00:32more than a day's drive away from each other.
00:36So the most recent murder in Toronto, if we know it's a murder,
00:40we just know that the name of the victim and that he was shot dead.
00:46We don't know why, who, what, when, how.
00:50So to this most recent murder, the public knows next to nothing about it
00:56other than there is a murder.
00:58So if you're wondering what the police are doing,
01:00I mean, they're probably looking into it, but this is Canadian police.
01:03So I expect extreme incompetence.
01:08And if this was a mean comment online about, you know,
01:14a government official that was not white,
01:18the person might be in jail for 50 years.
01:20But this is just a murder, so this is not that serious to the Toronto police.
01:24They will fumble it.
01:25And if they don't manage to fumble it and they find the person responsible,
01:28they would be put in jail for maybe a maximum of three years
01:31before being let out to rampage the streets again.
01:34So that's what the police is up to.
01:37Daniel, how does it, you know,
01:41this incident has also raised concerns about safety of Indian students in Canada
01:45because we have seen some incidents in the past as well.
01:49What is your comment on that?
01:51And also, you know,
01:51there was a report that an Indian man died of suspected cardiac arrest
01:56after waiting for more than eight hours.
01:57He was waiting for a treatment in hospital.
02:00So what does these things tell you about the situations of the,
02:04of Indian nationals in Canada?
02:06Well, okay.
02:07These two things are completely unconnected.
02:10Okay.
02:11So to go to the hospital, this is, this is what every Canadian,
02:14this is not an Indian discrimination.
02:16This is socialized medicine and the Canadian healthcare system
02:19not being updated to handle.
02:22I mean, we are a country of 30 million people.
02:25We're beginning of Trudeau.
02:26We're now a country of 40 million people,
02:28mostly through direct migration, which say what you will about that.
02:32But one of the things we should have done is if we had hospital services
02:37that were still failing and understaffed and underworked at 30 million,
02:40we should have increased capacity.
02:42We did not increase capacity in the medical field.
02:44The only people we added into the medical field in the last 10 years are
02:47bureaucrats to, to pretend with, we're adding more medical fields.
02:51So we've just made the problem even worse by swamping a net,
02:54a bureaucracy onto a mass problem.
02:56So that's why people are dying in hospitals.
02:59Now, to the safety of Indian students in general, I don't think the problem with Canada is that it's unsafe as of yet,
03:09unless you get into gang warfare, which is another problem brought up by some migration problems.
03:18But in terms of safety, Canada is still a relatively safe country.
03:28I've been to India.
03:29I've driven on the roads there.
03:30I think you're more likely to die in a car crash on an Indian highway than you are to die in a homicide,
03:35you know, most places in the world.
03:37So in terms of safety, I think the safety risk is not really what we're talking about.
03:42I mean, you're talking about more climate, a climate of discrimination that's growing.
03:46And that, that, that's a problem, right?
03:48Because most Indians, if they would come here, would not be murdered and shot dead.
03:52And if that's your line for safety, then it's whatever.
03:55But are things getting a little bit more uncomfortable socially in Canada,
03:59especially as it goes for immigrants, particularly Indians?
04:02Yes, yes.
04:03There's a rising culture of, you know, anti-Indian sentiment being pushed by a lot of different factors.
04:11Some of them you're familiar with in India.
04:13But, yeah, I don't think safety is, is, is the big problem we're talking about.
04:19Although this is Canada and is getting, it is less safe than it was 20 years ago
04:22when it was an incredibly, incredibly safe country.
04:25Now it's just a pretty safe country instead of a very safe country.
04:29Daniel, just one more question talking about those Indian students dying.
04:33How does this incident fit into the broader context of violent crime in Toronto this year?
04:38And are police or city officials offering any insight into trends or patterns that might help the public understand the risk?
04:47No, the police have no insights of value whatsoever.
04:49And this is sort of, yeah, this is the slow decline of the Canadian institutions where, you know,
04:55a shooting 20 years, 15 years ago would have been massive, massive news.
04:59But now we're growing more accustomed to homicide in the city and in the country.
05:04So that's unfortunate.
05:06And what are the police doing?
05:07The police are a big part of it, too, through either negligence.
05:12Some of the police officers are good.
05:13But again, the police boards and the politics around policing, we've sort of imbibed this sort of de-policing strategy.
05:19So the Canadian theory of policing says that crime comes from racism and police cause racism.
05:28So when you have crime in certain areas, the answer is not to use police to stop crime.
05:34It's actually to blame the police, take the police away and enable, just because the police are causing racism with racial profiling
05:41and all the ridiculous things that they come up with in a university classroom.
05:45But essentially they say, after 10 years of Trudeau, this has turned the country much, much less safe.
05:50So the police are demoralized.
05:52The good police are demoralized.
05:53The bad police have been moved to positions of power, and they're ideologically captured by the nonsense theories.
06:00So what are the theories they're putting out towards the public?
06:03Probably something in the lines of racism causes violence.
06:06So let's reduce racism with some sort of HR sensitivity training at a government workplace.
06:12And if you say, is that going to reduce crime in Canada?
06:15The answer is no, it's not.
06:16But we're going to continue to, I don't think anyone believes it, but we're going to continue to push it.
06:21Because again, it's quite lucrative for the people who get the contracts to do that.
06:24Most of them are involved in the Liberal Party in some way.
06:27So that's sort of what we're doing with the crime.
06:29We're doing nothing productive about the crime.
06:31They will be continuing the crime.
06:32It will get worse.
06:33It's not as bad.
06:34It's not like a slum in Bangladesh where you've got to fight your way to the top.
06:38It's still a first world country, but it is on a downward trend in terms of safety.
06:42But it's not at like, you know, you're safer in Canada than you are in the border of India and Pakistan,
06:49you know, dancing between those two armies.
06:51So, let's get started.
