Even after the ignominious exit of Justin Trudeau, Canada’s Liberal party continues to showcase its blatant hypocrisy. In a major assault on the country’s democratic values, the ruling party has now decided to ban its own candidate Chandra Arya, an Indian-origin Hindu politician, from running for the party leadership. It has also brazenly accused the Conservative party leader Pierre Poilievre of being backed by India.
The outrageous allegations against both the Canadian leaders are in line with the narrative toed by Justin Trudeau. It aims to tarnish the reputation of those who challenge the party’s authority by boxing them as an “agent of India”.
After Trudeau’s exit, Mark Carney and the Liberal party now seems to be walking down the same path and looking to derail any candidate that exposes the problems currently plaguing Canada, be it the cost of living crisis, the rising extremism, the drug and narco mafias or the trade crisis that is ongoing with the USA. Apart from the geopolitical developments, the skewed policies of the Liberals also share the blame for the miseries Canada is currently facing.
Liberal Leader Targeted
Long touting itself as the party of democracy and free speech, the Liberal party of Canada has turned out to be anything but liberal. Under Justin Trudeau the party has been openly throwing away the rights of its citizens. The crackdown on truckers is one glaring example, Trudeau has lost out massively in public perception due to his consistent anti democratic moves.
Over time the Liberal party leader Justin Trudeau had managed to turn himself in to one of the most authoritarian and despised figures in the country for whom anyone challenging his power had to be decimated. During his tenure Trudeau also managed to ruin Canada’s relations with a number of nations. On the other hand it had been exposed that the Liberal Party itself has deep ties with the Chinese Communist Party.
However the party has instead diverted the narrative focusing on attacking other democratic and friendly nations such as the USA and India. Trudeau himself destroyed relations with the largest democracy in the world just to pander to his extremist vote bank. The Khalistan movement is a mafia drug filled narco terror movement that has been hammering away at Canadian society and it seems that anyone who raises a head against them is systematically pushed out by the so called Liberal party.
This time the target has been a Liberal leader Chandra Arya. Arya is a Canadian politician who represented Nepean in the House of Commons of Canada as a member of the Liberal Party from 2015 to 2025. Arya has been the regular target of the extremist Khalistani brigade, first for not making public statements against the Modi government in India and then for pinpointing the Khalistani movement for promoting violence in Canada.
The Canadian Liberal party, that seems to always be looking to angle its politics according to the Khalistani radicals then came out with the ‘decision’ to ban Arya from running against Carney. The move is purported to be made due to loose allegations against Chandra Arya’s of having ties to the Indian government. What is equally shocking is the fact that aside from the flimsy excuse, the party has no real evidence or grounds to block Arya from running.
While the Liberal party has no problems allying with extremists like Jagmeet Singh, or having a pro China PM like Justin Trudeau however it has deep qualms about someone like Chandra Arya who has been looking to shed light on the crucial issues plaguing Canada. It now seems Trudeau’s successor Mark Carney is walking on the same lines cutting away his competition and using wild accusations as a veil for his own inadequacies.
The India Hoax
Since his election in 2016 Justin Trudeau had been slowly drumming up the Indian bogey in Canadian politics. The drastic fall of Canadian political narrative was striking with Trudeau brushing aside his party’s links with the CCP and the dreaded extremist Khalistanis, instead pushing the spotlight on a non existent India interference anti Modi agenda which was heavily backed by the likes of Jagmeet Singh.
Now the Indian bogey seems to have become the go to for the Liberal party to slander anyone who dares to challenge their control. The allegations on Arya are said to be based on his alleged ties to the Indian government, including his meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a trip to India last year.
However, both the Canadian government and the Liberal Party have not provided specific reasons for blocking Arya from the leadership race or his re-election bid, the report added. “Not once have I sought – nor been required to seek – permission from the government to do so,” Arya stated.
Arya, who is of the Hindu faith, also believes that his removal from the Liberal Party’s leadership race and Nepean nomination is due to his outspoken stance against the Khalistani movement in Canada, which advocates for a separate Sikh state in Punjab. He has been vocal in his opposition to Khalistani extremism, which he argues has led to tensions within Canada’s South Asian community.
“The sole point of contention with the Liberal Party has been my outspoken advocacy on issues important to Hindu Canadians and my firm stance against Khalistani extremism,” he noted.
Attack Against Poilievre
The same narrative has now been unleashed to tarnish the current Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre as well. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre told Canadians on Tuesday that they should be more worried about Liberal Leader Mark Carney’s ties to China.
Poilievre dismissed the newsworthiness of Liberal Party mouthpiece reports with the usual allegations about India, Poilievre said that he was glad the story broke when it did, because it raised the issue of Carney’s own questionable foreign dealings.
“There’s something that’s really been worrying me,” Poilievre told reporters, saying he believed Carney was too connected to China, which is increasingly seen as hostile to Canada. “What did Mr. Carney, in his role as Trudeau’s economic advisor, offer to China?” Poilievre asked.
The Conservative leader said Carney has some explaining to do about a $276-million loan Brookfield Asset Management secured from the Bank of China last November, when Carney was pulling double duty as Brookfield’s chair and the head of then Liberal prime minister Justin Trudeau’s task force on economic growth.
Poilievre alleges Carney personally flew to Beijing for “secret talks” with the deputy governor of the Bank of China, at a time when Chinese intelligence was actively targeting Canadians inside and outside the country.

The Canadian elections are due to be held in the latter half of 2025 and it seems the Liberal mouthpieces have come up with the strategy to use the India agent narrative against anyone looking to take on the authoritarian and vastly unpopular Liberal party. It does not matter whether there is any credibility to the wild accusations, what matters is that it panders to a certain demographic and it is irrelevant how much internal and external damage that corresponds for Ottawa. The Liberals under Trudeau earlier and now Carney are quite content as long as they can manipulate the narrative and get back in power, while the well being of Canada seem to be the furthest thing from their mind.
