"We note the enactment of the National Housing Strategy Act, Accessible Canada Act, and National strategy to combat human trafficking.”

Other than Indian diplomat, Bangladesh diplomat Abdullah Al Forhad urged Canada to intensify its efforts to combat racism, hate speech, hate crimes, and discrimination against migrants and Muslim minorities. 

Bangladesh also called on Canada to take measures to reduce carbon emissions and address the negative impacts of climate change. However, Al Forhad commended Canada's progress in the protection of human rights and combating human trafficking.

Sri Lankan diplomat Thilini Jayasekara also urged Canada to agree to the Convention on the Protection of Rights of All Migrant Workers in spirit and words. Take essential steps to combat racial discrimination, oppose misinformation against minorities, and follow up on global human rights recommendations.

Tussle In India-Canada Relations:

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau accused India of violating the Vienna Convention in September this year. During the ongoing diplomatic crisis, India forced the Canadian authorities to move out their 40 diplomats.

Trudeau spoke out to the media that if bigger countries can violate international law without consequences, then the whole world gets more dangerous for everyone. He further added we reached out to our friends and allies, like the US, to work on this serious violation.

India has rejected Canada's accusation and made it clear that this is not India's way of functioning. New Delhi has provided evidence to Canada how their soil has been a safe haven for terrorists and urged them to act against those. 

India suspended visa services in Canada in September which has now been partially restored. India also accused Canadian diplomats of interfering in India's internal matters and shifted 40 of them.
