வேறொரு களப்பிரிவில் இருந்து எடுக்கப்பட்ட ஒரு தமிழ் கனடிய இளைஞனின் கருத்து:
-----------------------------------------------------
According to your section 83.01(1)(a) and 83.01(1)(<!--emo&B)--><img src='http://www.yarl.com/forum/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='cool.gif'><!--endemo--> of the Criminal Code as:
-an activity that is an offence under one of the UN anti-terrorism conventions and protocols listed in the Criminal Code; or
-an activity that is taken or threatened for political, religious or ideological purposes and threatens the public or national security by killing, seriously harming or endangering a person, causing substantial property damage that is likely to seriously harm people, or by interfering with or disrupting an essential service, facility or system
The LTTE emerged from Tamils to fight back the state sponsored terrorism by Srilankan government. Canadian definition of criminal code well fits to Srilankan goverment too. The LTTE and Srilankan government are equal partners now so its time to list Srilankan government in your list. By banning LTTE Canada is forcing itself to be responsible of continuing masscre of Srilankan government.
This move makes raises lots of questions. <b>
-if it's meant as a revenge for tamilcanadians who are supporters of liberals (but many voted tories with the guidance of community leaders)
-if it's about to take a crucial step in peace process to pressure Srilankan government on seriously workingout a solution.
-if it's following US orders to follow what US has done-ban on LTTE
-if it's fallen to the false propaganda by Lankan embassy and some full time working sinhalese extremists in Canada.
-if it's concerned to the human rights watch report (if extortion is the real cause, a simple official warning or other measures could've been enough than going this high)
</b>
French is fully implemented in Canada as second language respecting minorities but in Srilanka, its only in papers. Where do we go report it? We tamils didn't have any other country to speak of ourselves against state sponsored terrors so we retaliated and used the same tactic. It was a tamil canadian aerospace engineer who went to join LTTE to form airforce. There're other interllectuals who give their brain for the tamil cause. This ban makes all of this highly educated and hardworking tamil canadians branded as terrorists.
If Canadian tamils pouring money to LTTE is the real concern Canada has it could've gone to the front organizations and warned about it rather than just hitting with a big weapon-ban.
The 'Pongu thamil' event with more than 50,000 tamils participation alone should tell you that how much we care back home issues. Even though its not a criminal activity to gather again after this ban there will be quite number tamils who will be afraid to join due to the fear of regulations. In that case, Canada curbed down tamils freedom of expression.
You are forcing enthusiastic tamil youths to quit any activities(organizing events like Martyre's day) to promote their tamil cause and have a feel of tamilness inside them and make them feel guilt if they are to support behind the scene.
Its looks pathetic to see our sole representatives-LTTE to be listed with the worse world terrorist like Al-Quida and other 38 groups. Take some time and compare LTTE's vision with other terror groups. Any oppressed minorities have to fight back if no one is there to talk on their behalf.
Until Canada promises to take care of my brothers and sisters I, a tamilcanadian will continue to support the tamil cause, with more active role than before.
Thank you Canada.
