India Ridicules Canada for 'Idiotic' Laws Defending Privacy of Thieves
15:36 13.01.2024 (Updated: 17:11 13.01.2024) Indian-origin Canadians and high-profile Indian social media users have criticized Canadian laws that discourage sharing security camera footage of thieves, citing the presumption of innocence and privacy concerns.
The mocking of Canadian laws by Indians was triggered after police in the Quebec province warned residents against sharing surveillance videos of thieves breaking into their properties.
“You cannot post the images yourself because you have to remember, in Canada, we have a presumption of innocence and posting that picture could be a violation of private life,” a spokesman from Sûreté du Québec (SQ) was quoted as saying in Canadian media.
Balraj Deol, an Indian-Canadian living in Brampton,
questioned the Canadian law-enforcement for being so
concerned about the “rights” of criminals.
“In Canada thieves, cheaters, thugs,
terrorists and anti-social elements have a lot more rights than hard working citizens. Even law enforcement agencies are more worried about rights of such elements in JT's (Prime Minister Justin Trudeau) Canada,” Deol remarked.
New Delhi-based strategic affairs expert Sushant Sareen also mocked the “level of idiocy” in western societies such as Canada.
Other Indian accounts commented that Canada had become a “safe haven” for thieves and other anti-social entities.
In recent months, New Delhi has officially
accused Canada of being a “safe haven” for terrorists over condoning of anti-India activities by pro-Khalistan (a radical Sikh movement seeking a separate nation) entities in the North American country.
It isn’t only the Indian users which have been trolling the Canadian laws.
“And let’s not forget that posting security footage is such a horrible violation of the thieves’ privacy. They were just minding their own business, stealing other people’s stuff, when suddenly they’re plastered all over the internet for the world to see. How unfair,” a social media user Joe sarcastically remarked.
While India ranks as the top source of new immigrants for Canada, bilateral ties have been strained of late due to Ottawa’s tacit support for pro-Khalistan groups.
