At the UN Human Rights Council, India recommends that Canada strengthen measures against hate crimes and misuse of freedom of expression, emphasizing the prevention of violence and attacks on religious and racial minorities. The suggestion comes in the aftermath of a UN report criticizing Canada for "modern slavery" in its foreign worker programs. Tensions persist between India and Canada, with Prime Minister Trudeau's recent remarks on diplomatic ties and allegations surrounding the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. India also urges Canada to eliminate structural discrimination against indigenous children and address service access disparities.
