Canadian News Item Intended to Fire Up Local Tamils
Also Indicates A No Nonsense Policy By The Canadian Government Towards Terrorists Or Their Fronts!

Sharpshooting By Mountie Sam - For LankaWeb

-April 16th 2008

The News item captioned Tamil Games Victim of Police Seizure by Jeff Heinrich Published in the Montreal Gazette on Tuesday, April 15 has fired up Tamils in Montreal to the tune of "Hey Tamil youth of Montreal, listen up: the Canadian government wants to extinguish your (mini-) Olympic flame" and this is bold rhetoric by a representative of the Leading English News Daily of Montreal and an apathetic example of a Canadian speaking (up in veiled rhetoric of course) against the Government of his country and its Law Enforcement Agency the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.They are presently conducting raids and seizure of material as tangible evidence of the WTM's links with the LTTE, a globally frowned upon terrorist organization which has established itself in Canada due mainly to previous neglect and indifference by incumbent Governments and what this writer's objectives are by fomenting dormant emotions amongst the local Tamils can only be attributed to a lack of responsibility and disrespect towards the Government.

The Canadian Government's suspicions that the World Tamil Movement (WTM) is a front for an outlawed terrorist organization back in Sri Lanka, the Liberation Tigers Of Tamil Eelam being well founded and the raid on the premises of the WTM have been conducted after prolonged and careful investigations which also involved investigations by Canada's spy agency CSIS and other Law enforcement agencies both in Toronto, Montreal and Nationally have been confirmed by reliable sources who prefered anonymity and not a case of the Tamil community activities being railroaded or disrupted wantonly as the writer suggests.

If the WTN has been forced into cancelling a big annual community sports event it had planned for this summer according to the group's Montreal lawyer Mr Slimovitch a member of Montreal's Jewish community he has to contend with the realities involved in the past that the WTM or whatever organization that sponsored this event and others of its kind did so blatantly displaying Tamil Tiger insignia, the banner of the Tamil Tigers lofted high and all the propaganda material relative to theTamil Tiger Movement's activities which has now gone underground since the New Conservative Government took office and proscribed them while implementing the proscription!!

All the rhetoric suggesting that the WTM has a sporting activity equating to a kind of mini-Olympic Games, and all the lists of participants and volunteers they had for that and other events have all been confiscated, as proclaimed to the media by lawyer Steven Slimovitch seems to overlook the reality that this event is a continuation of the same event which has taken place for some years in Montreal now with one notable difference namely the fanfare and publicity it's organizers gave the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam under whose auspices the event was conducted in previous year, which they have now been forced to abandon for fear of incarceration!

Indeed it must sounds funny, but it's true that the partiicipants of this event normally go to a park, usually the Kent Park in Cote des Neiges district in West Montreal and have a few hundred people participating which turns out to be a pretty big thing albeit by no means Olympian. Not this year though as the credibilities of the organizers have been discovered as pro -terrorist and if its organizers can half as much as scramble to keep it going they are probably putting themselves at risk as their number seems to be up despite the absence of the incriminating insignia which they seem to have buried for obvious reasons!!One of the main organizers of this event amongst others in the past even had a huge Tamil Tiger Crest stencilled on the rear window of his car which suddenly dissapeared once the Government crackdown began and unconfirmed reports suggest that this individual has been apprehended for Tax related and other offences!

All the events which have led to The Tamil Movement's headquarters on Van Horne Ave. in Côte des Neiges being sealed last Friday after the RCMP enforced a Federal Court order barring access to the premises are sequential to carefully conducted investigations and the reason as reported in the Toronto Star and Montreal Gazette for this action hinging on more than mere suspicion that the two-story converted residence - which the RCMP raided two years ago to collect evidence - was being used as a base to send money to the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam not for humanitarian purposes as the plea of response was, but towards funding their terrorist activities against the Government of Sri Lanka.

If the Government order to shut down the activities of the WTM in Montreal throws an iron in the works of the Tamil community's plans for its so called 'mini-Olympics', normally held over a weekend in July in a Montreal public park or the Complexe sportif Claude Robillard. Now in its 18th year, it seems unfortunate from a community standpoint but perfectly justifiable if the organization sponsoring it was a front for Tamil Tiger Terrorism which the Government of Canada has charged with tangible evidence collected from as far back as 2006.

The present Canadian administration being a straight laced, smooth functioning and efficient one which has adopted a no nonsense, no conciliations to terrorists! attitude! which is much to the chagrin of all the Tamil Tiger supportives both in Canada and globally are a role model for all other administrations the world over where terrorism has no place to hide within Canada as they are invariably sought out and brought to justice within the Canadian Justice System regardless of spur of the moment denials, souped up statistics, concocted fairytales and falsified pleas of innocence as there has never been a single documented case attesting to any benevolent intentions or objectives present in the idealogies of the LTTE towards the Nation of Sri Lanka and now a globally know reality where the WTM by virtue of affiliations which will be proved beyond reasonable doubt are also part of this rationale!

If Tamil Tiger terrorism is being effectively stamped out in Sri Lanka there is no reason to tolerate their presence not only in Canada but any other part of the world where the mendacious Tamil Tigers aspire to set up operational locales and Canada's response seems to indicate at long last an action which should have been initiated decades ago! The intolerance of terrorist activity in any form within Canada with specific reference to the Tamil Tiger Terrorist Organization who at times arogantly flaunted their presence in Canada and have been rudely shocked into being disillissioned today that theirs was a wasted effort!!
