Dear Mr. MacLaren:<\/p>\n

We are still reeling after the Paris Attack by a Terrorist group, that made an impact on me, since I had being in a 30 year terrorist war that was carried on in Sri Lanka by the Tamil Tigers.<\/p>\n

Then I was appalled to learn that you had made a statement in the Ontario Legislative Assembly, on November 27th 2015, hailing the Tamil Tigers, and praising them, and even inviting them to the Assembly. These are the very people who had been supporting the terrorism to go on, from Canada. They funded the LTTE, (Liberation of Tamil Tigers Ealam) that carried out enormous amounts of suicide bombings, and bombing public places etc. The 100,000<\/strong> people who died, that you mentioned in your statement, was not Tamils alone. They were mostly the Sinhalese, Burghers and Muslims who live in Sri Lanka peacefully. And the birth of Prabhakaran that you hailed, was the leader, who forcefully abducted children from families who were poor, living in the North and then brain washed them to go as suicide bombers.<\/p>\n

In this day and age, I am disgusted to think, that you been a MPP for the Province of Ontario, does not know what really goes on. Here there have been terrorism on our door step, with a attack to the Parliament Hill, and you support a Terrorist organization and make them to be a hero.<\/p>\n

It was Conservative Party of Canada that banned the LTTE and banned as the terrorist organization. I am simply trying to understand the whole aspect of what has happened here? What if one of the MPP’s made a statement for the Al-Queida leader<\/strong> or the ISIS<\/strong>, do you think the world would take it lightly? NO. The whole world would have jumped on you and you would not have a way of escaping. But what happened in Sri Lanka\u00a030 years, is considered, a minute thing, may be because Sri Lanka does not have oil, and your election was funded by these Tamil Terrorist groups, in return that you would recognize them publicly.<\/p>\n

Being a Canadian Sri Lankan I am disgusted with the double standards, that is there among the leaders of this country.<\/p>\n

Yours sincerely,<\/p>\n
