Hon. Jason Kenney, PC., MP,

Minister of Citizenship, Immigration & Multiculturalism

House of Commons, Ottawa

Dear Jason:

I recall Martin Luther King Jr., saying: ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-We shall have to repent in this generation not so much for the evil deeds of the wicked people but for the appalling silence of the good people.ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  I consider myself as one ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-of the good peopleƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ guarding a Mother, my Mother Lanka from the baseball bat bludgeoning Canadian parliamentarians, Conservatives, Liberals and NDP alike, and as such I shall not be silent and I shall speak.

I was somewhat distraught and amazed by your statement to the Tamil Media during the recent media briefing at MarkhamƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Hilton, when you had said according to David Poopalapillai, the spokesperson for the Canadian Tamil Congress ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ (CTC) that ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦Canada acted against its own interests by listing the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) as a terrorist group in 2006.ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  And that bothers me and should bother other Canadians across the country too. What Canadian interest were you talking of? ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ I wish you had elaborated.

I thought this whole exercise of banning the Tamil Tiger terrorists was another step towards wiping out international terrorism after the 9/11 event, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ and safeguard CanadaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢sƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  territory and ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ her 33 million people from terrorism.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  And Tamil Tigers were the top-dog-terrorists, ruthless and serial killers worse than Al-Qaeda. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ So you representing the Conservative party and the Government of Canada is now on your knees to the sympathizers of the most ruthless terrorist group in the world, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) aka Tamil Tigers to say that Canada is sorry for banning them and now understand the folly as the Conservative Government acted against CanadaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s own interest.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  This is amazing stuff, Jason.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Sweet Mother of Jesus, whatƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s going on in Jason KenneyƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s head?ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  I think he needs a valium. I suppose you have no choice but to follow the GovernmentƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s policy now on Sri Lanka.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  HmmmƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦.I shall make a mental note of this turn of events as I certainly will have to make a choice of which party to vote at the next federal election.

That is not what I thought your reason for banning the Tamil Tigers was. And I supported the banning of the Tamil Tigers from Reform and Canadian Alliance days.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  And I supported 100 percent Minister of Public Safety Stockwell Day and You who spearheaded this banning. I suppose, ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Tamil Tiger money amounting to billions of dollars is the root of all evil and also the bloc vote which will make the Conservatives win a majority in the next parliament, which will be the critical mass to decide whether to throw Sri Lanka after being bludgeoned unconscious into the Tamil TigerƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s den?ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚

Jason, to be honest, werenƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t we Canadians other than the Tamil Diaspora scared of these Tamil Tiger terrorists who had assassinated two heads of state, Rajiv Gandhi of India at Sriperumbudur, near Chennai in South India, and President Premadasa of Sri Lanka in Colombo.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  And also Sri LankaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Foreign Minister who was a Tamil, Lakshman Kadiragamar, a former Foreign Minister Ranjan Wijeratne, the Minister of Industries C.V. Gunaratne, the Leader ofƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  the Opposition Appapillai Amirthalingam, a Tamil, and the list goes on.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  These Tamil Tigers decimated most of their rival Tamil terrorist groups and killed their leaders, Sri Sabarathnam (TELO), Uma Maheswaran (PLOTE) and K. Padhmanabah (EPRLF) together with 13 members of his politbureau in an apartment in a Kodambakkam complex in South India.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  So The Tamil Tigers had successfully spread their octopus killer-tentacles across 24 miles of salt-water over the Palk Strait and went on assassinating whoever said ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-NoƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ to their separatist cause. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ This was not a small childƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s play ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”cops-and robbersƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢ murderous achievement to ignore.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  This was Big!

The Tamil Tiger terrorists was an India trained convention army with all sophisticated weaponry mostly bought with Canadian dollars, and the only terrorist group in the world that had a sea wing and an air wing with four Czech ZLIN-143 aircraft; that took on the 4th largest army in the world, the Indians, and sent back 1,200 of them in body bags when they were asked to get out of the island by President Premadasa who was later assassinated by the Tamil Tigers.

No wonder why Canada was mortified of the Tamil Tigers who perfected the suicide body pack and had 388 suicide bombings to show us that they were the best there was, the best there is and the best there ever will be as ruthless terrorist serial killers; and the best in the world as MasterƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s of ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ suicide bombing.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Jason, no wonder Canadians were scared of them.

We were told in an RCMP report that 8000 hardcore Tamil Tigers were walking the streets in the Greater Toronto Area. They had come in as refugees and one, Loganathan Sabanayagam was one in the group of killers of Jaffna Mayor Alfred Duraiappah in 1975, who was caught in 1992, in Toronto for forging passports and sent to jail for 18 months.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  This guy had been in jail for two years in Sri Lanka before he was released in an amnesty for Tamil Tigers, and managed toƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ sneak inƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ to Canada as a refugee and we being suckers took this murderer in and we have been stuck with this murderer ever since.

With this backgrounder of the Tamil Tigers, I fail to understand why you told the Tamil media that ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Canada acted against own interests in listing LTTE (Tamil Tigers) asƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ a terrorist groupƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚.They were the New Mafia in Canada operating from Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver.

You banned the Tamil Tigers on April 10, 2006, and now, on January 26, 2013, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ almost seven years later you seem to regret that your Conservative party listed them as a terrorist organization as you seem to think it was ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”¹…”against our own interestsƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  That is amazing stuff, Jason.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  What interest are we talking of?

On 20 August 2008, a leading national news paper reported that according to an RCMP Report, a Toronto non-profit group wired more than $3-million to overseas bank accounts, some of them linked to the Tamil Tigers.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  The Report pointed its finger at the World Tamil Movement (WTM) which was a Toronto based group accused of bankrolling Sri LankaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Tamil Tiger terrorists.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Most of the money $1.9 million went to an account at the Bumiputra Commerce Bank in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and the Report says ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-is utilized as a vehicle to forward money to the LTTE from Canada.ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚

On June 16, 2008, Minister Stockwell Day announced that the Conservative government had added WTM in OttawaƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s official list of terrorist groups.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-Tell me Jason, do you regret that WTM too was added as a terrorist group against our own interest?ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚

By December 2000, according to secret intelligence documents, eight non-profit organizations and five companies were operating in Canada as fronts for the Tamil Tiger terrorists.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  By that time the Liberal government had been provided the first official confirmation that Canada had been used as a base for Tamil Tiger murderous operations overseas like specialized suicide bombings and political assassination.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  And yet the Liberal governmentƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s Prime Minister Jean Chretien and his finance Minister Paul Martin defended their moral and financial support of the groups that the Canadian Intelligence reported , and accused the opposition members of parliament like you of being motivated by ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-racismƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ rather than genuine concern for national security. Was that true?

The fact remains thatƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the money forwarded by the World Tamil Movement to the Tamil Tigers were used to buy sophisticated military weapons to kill the innocent Sinhalese and Muslim civilians in Sri Lanka,ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ where byƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Canada aided and abetted that Eelam war.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  And now your Conservative governmentƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢sƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  parliamentarians have the audacity and temerity to ask for accountabilityƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  from the Sri Lankan Government for theƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ deaths during the last five months of the 594 month war.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  You know, Jason, that is a bunch of baloney hanging in a stall at the ByWard Market in Ottawa.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Wars kill you know Jason.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  If Canada did not allow the Tamil Diaspora fund that war to buy war weapons, the killings would have been reduced at least byƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ 40 percent.as Canada’s Tamil Diaspora provided one-third of the annual Tamil Tiger’s war budget.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ That is commonsense and simple logic.

Well Jason, national security was the Conservatives real concern during te Liberal’s governing years, and that is why you all wanted to ban the Tamil Tigers promising theƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Canadian peoples that you will ban them if you Conservatives get into power.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  You Conservatives stuck to your promise. The Conservatives won on 23 January 2006, and on 10th AprilƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  2006, announced that you have proscribed the Tamil Tigers (LTTE).

By then almost all non-Tamil Sri Lankans paid tribute to you all for banning the Tamil Tigers and saving the lives of 1000s of innocent Sinhalese and Muslims who would have been massacred by the Tamil Tiger terrorists, with weapons bought with Canadian dollars, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ which was a daily affair.

By then the RCMP, Toronto Police, Immigration Officials and CSIS had been warning for years that Canada had become the playground for the groups affiliated to the Tamil Tiger terrorists.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  By then it wasnƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢t too much to hope that those entrustedƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  with the stewardship of the nation, like Prime Minister Harper and you, Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, will at last stop blocking your ears, as the Liberals had done for 13 years.

But with your statement to the Tamil media in Markham on 26 January 2013 when you said ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦Canada acted against its own interest by listing the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) as a terrorist group on 2006ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚, there seems to be an accumulation of an extra secretion of earwax inƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  your earsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ which had blocked them.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  That is unfortunate for the innocent Sri Lankans back in that island nation exposing them to a possible second wave of Tamil Tiger terror in Sri Lanka.

And the chance is that their butts will be whipped again ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ as they were whipped the first time ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ around in early 2009 by the disciplined Sri Lankan armed forces and be eliminated again.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  LetƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s not forget that Sri Lanka was the only country in the world that wiped out, single handed, ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ a terrorist group, which had a conventional army, an air wing and a sea wing, and who were the top-dogs in the world of terrorism.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Eat your hearts out NATO forces in Afghanistan who are trying to eliminate the Taliban for years.

So Jason, you told the Tamil media that ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚¦Canada acted against its own interest by listing the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) as a terrorist group in 2006.ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚  Alright then, letƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s spit out what comes next in the natural logical progression of the planned events on Sri LankaƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ by the Conservative Harper Government?

Is it that you all will lift the ban on the LTTE just before the next federal election, where by the Conservatives will secure 100% of the separatist Tamil votes in the Greater Toronto Area and elsewhere and hang on to the majority in the next Canadian parliament?

Jason, if honesty if part of your political life, then tell me, and all Canadians that Asoka Weerasinghe is far off base. ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ And that you Conservatives have no intention to lift the ban of the Tamil Tigers before the next general election.

Let’s hear it!

Sincerely,

Asoka Weerasinghe (C11255047)

    At last someone has revealed state secrets!!

    We knew it all along. YAAAWN!

    If Canada didn’t ban them, Canadians would have seen many of their dirty acts.

  2. LankaLover Says:

    Even now, the ban is just nominal. LTTE thrive in Canada with their front organizations.. TV and Radio stations, usual fund-raising etc.. etc.

    Canadian government just gives a blind eye – as Jason mentioned indirectly, they are after the Tamil votes.

  3. Vis8 Says:

    Looks like this “minister” still hasn’t learnt who these terrorist supporters in Toronto are. He greed for “campaign donations” and promised votes appear to have gotten the better of his judgement. We need to keep exposing and fight against these morons. Well done, Asoka!

  4. Lorenzo Says:

    EU + US are bringing in another resolution.

    LTTE plans to show channel 4 video #3 in Geneva during UNHRC time.

    Channel 4 has come up with this new #3 video.

    What is our defence ministry doing to COUNTER channel 4 BS?

    They have to counter it NOW before it SNOWBALLS.

    By the way what happened to that class action against the TNA move?

  7. Lorenzo Says:

    Please don’t troll or spam comments. Not good.

    We MUST do our bit CONSISTENT with what MoD does.

    It is always best for MoD to set the plan of attack of the OFFICIAL AND MEDIA response from ONE CENTRAL location. Otherwise MIXED SIGNALS will go.

  8. Nanda Says:

    Why not face the this WAR MONGERS TRIBUNAL ? It is easy. Let them prove it. Then catch the bastards who are giving evidence and their families and bring them to justice using minister Silva.

  9. Voice123 Says:

    Lorezo, MoD cant do everything. Neither do they have the right connections nor are they seen as objective. No matter the actual credibility, MoD and GOSL have a credibility image problem internationally. Private organisations dont have the same credibility issues. This is very important when it comes to lobbying and the mass media. The mass media influences the voter, the voter influences the politicians. Its no use thinking that winning over a few governing politicians here and there is enough when the LTTE propoganda machine can easily undo it. We have to fight with the right weapons. Private organizations and lobbyists must appeal to the international media and voters directly – not because they support the GOSL but because they support a unitary Sri Lanka and are opposed to racist terrorism. This last point is very important.

  10. Lorenzo Says:

    MoD is NOT GOSL. MoD serves SL, not just the GOSL.

    As I said before, we MUST do our bit CONSISTENT with what MoD does.

    On voters in Canada, USA, etc., yes we have MORE discretion and we have to do more. That too should not confuse them on controvercial issues (devolution, LLRC, etc.) Asoka does it well. We should lend our hand too.

  11. Voice123 Says:

    Lorenzo says: “Asoka does it well. We should lend our hand too.”

    Agreed. But this should be done in a co-ordinated, organised way with MASSIVE fund raising etc so we have enough resources to put a few dedicated and altruistic people like Asoka full-time on the job (should they choose to) and sue and threaten to sue biased media organisations etc. Lets sue them and earn more money for our pro Sri Lanka cause. Lorenza, you are a big fan of Israel. So you would know that the government of Israel is backed up by a myriad of well-funded global Jewish organisations UNRELATED to their government but united by a single cause – to maintain and defend their state (eg B’nai B’rith International). Nobody can point fingers at them saying that they are biased or “pro-government” because they AREN’T. Doesnt matter how much internal disagreements so long as it stays internal and everyone is united in one overarching CAUSE. Even the LTTE diaspora has their own racist and diabolical cause which they unite through murdering and threatening each other. Decent organisations never stoop to that level. LTTE diaspora will try to plant agents and spies but they can be sniffed out by those dedicated to the CAUSE. We should take the fight to them and plant spies in their organisations too. Plenty of Tamil speaking people are secretly sick to death of the LTTE’s authoritarian and mercenary attitude and moreover have the brains to see that the LTTE is harming their OWN interests. Once these individuals know that serious efforts are being made privately overseas, I believe some of them will also lend help to fight the terror group and its associated mafias. I believe a private lobby group to defend Sri Lanka and raise funds to counter propoganda, etc started in the 80s in Australia. The LTTE lobby was alarmed at this development so they and their “professional weepers” went running to the Australian government of the time, weeping and sobbing and saying it was “anti-Tamil” and how their relatives have all been “killed by the Singhalum” and without properly verifying or analysing the situation the then Australian (Labor) government banned the pro-Sri Lanka group. We must be aware of all the pitfalls and potential tricks these people have up their sleeve to try and disable us and overcome them all one by one. This is WAR. In 2009 a battle was won but the war never ended.
