With a Massive 90 Million Tamil Population and Growing by More Than a Million Annually There is No Evidence of Tamil Genocide

There are 90 million Tamils globally and their population grows by more than 1 million each year. Those are massive numbers and don’t in anyway indicate suffering genocide”. Therefore, Canada’s Tamil genocide monument is a joke. It ridicules actual victims of genocide including original Canadians killed in their millions. In the case of Sri Lanka, Tamil population has grown massively despite the war and hundreds of thousands leaving the country as economic refugees. At least 20,000 Tamils live in each and every district of Sri Lanka. However, Sinhalas and Muslims are not allowed to live in the districts in the Northern Province which is virtually Tamil only. In reality Sinhalas and Muslims are the victims of genocide carried out by Tamil terrorists.
Though Tamils suffered no genocide, Tamil terrorists suffered extermination in 2009. There were 13 Tamil terrorist brigades and regiments and virtually all members were exterminated in war. The 14th brigade called Makkal Padai brigade was made up of civilians up to 11,000 strong. They suffered no extermination. They were rehabilitated, trained in vocations and released back to society.
Canada seems to be rattled by the fact that the entire LTTE Tamil terrorist outfit was exterminated. That seems to be the real grief. It is celebrated in Sri Lanka annually on May 19. It is a noble achievement by Sri Lanka that continues to save 3,950 lives on average each year since 2009. So far over 63,000 Sri Lankans got to live thanks to the war victory in 2009. That is the number of Sri Lankans who would have died had the war not ended in Sri Lanka’s victory in 2009.
On the topic of genocide there are many places around the world where real genocide takes place. Canada should focus on those areas as they too produce refugees who will call Canada their home. If Tamils get genocide monuments for no genocide, a number of Canadian communities of various origins deserves their own genocide monuments for real genocide they suffered. Above all genocide monuments should be erected in Canada to commemorate and condemn the genocide of hundreds of native Canadian tribes.
