Calgary conservative MP Jasraj Singh Halan met with a member of the Punjab Legislative Assembly who is currently out on bail, facing charges under India's Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act. Why was it appropriate for a Canadian MP, especially one who is supposed to be watching what happens to your tax dollars, to meet with someone who is facing serious criminal charges for all sorts of heinous offenses?

00:00:00.000 All right, this is insane. Just this week, three Calgary conservative MPs quietly went to Punjab,
00:00:07.280 India. Independent journalist Moka Bezergin broke this story. Credit where credit is due.
00:00:14.120 Great guy. Give him a follow. Now, let's get right to it. First off, there was no announcement,
00:00:19.560 no explanation, nothing on their social media. So how do you know about this? There is video
00:00:25.860 footage you can visibly see pier poliev's finance critic jasraj singh halan and mps amin preet singh
00:00:35.460 jill and dalwinder gill they were welcomed by punjabi politicians as canadian members of
00:00:43.060 parliament they rolled out the red carpet for these people there was armed security police
00:00:49.300 around them, knee hangs carrying weapons nearby. And during that same trip, Polviyev's finance
00:00:56.100 critic, Jasraj Singh Halan, met with Sukhpal Singh Karaya, a member of the Punjab Legislative
00:01:03.860 Assembly who is currently out on bail. You heard me. Out on bail? He is facing charges under
00:01:10.880 India's Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act. There are also other court cases
00:01:18.200 accusing him of money laundering and criminal intimidation.
00:01:22.320 Those cases are still ongoing.
00:01:24.160 So, in what world is it appropriate for a Canadian MP,
00:01:29.380 especially the federal finance critic,
00:01:32.000 someone who is supposed to be watching what happens to your tax dollars,
00:01:35.580 to meet with someone who is currently out on bail,
00:01:39.320 facing serious criminal charges for all sorts of heinous offenses?
00:01:43.980 And what about the other two MPs?
00:01:45.880 What were they up to?
00:01:47.360 So overall, there are so many questions that we need answers to.
00:01:52.040 What was the purpose of the trip?
00:01:53.860 What exactly was discussed?
00:01:55.680 Direct flights to Amritsar?
00:01:57.340 And we will bring a direct flight to Amritsar.
00:02:00.040 And working every day to try and get a direct flight to Amritsar.
00:02:04.660 Trudeau did not even get us a flight to Amritsar.
00:02:07.060 And who paid for it?
00:02:08.440 Taxpayers?
00:02:09.400 Their friends?
00:02:10.280 Themselves?
00:02:11.280 Why wasn't this disclosed?
00:02:13.160 Why didn't they tell the public they went?
00:02:15.160 Did Poliev know about it? If not, will there be consequences? And if he did, why did he approve
00:02:22.240 it? This is completely ridiculous, and Canadians rightfully deserve truthful and honest answers 0.74
00:02:30.380 for all of this. And if the Conservative Party doesn't provide any answers, if they stay quiet,
00:02:36.980 what are they hiding? And why would they be hiding anything? Are they scared that we'd spot
00:02:43.940 the curry-scented hypocrisy. The conservatives care more about restoring the Sikhs' ethnostate 1.00
00:02:51.260 than they do about restoring Canada. Let's bring it home for Kalistan! Let the Kalistan people 1.00
00:02:59.120 champion their own destiny! They are not ordinary people, they are extraordinary people! In Punjab,
00:03:06.860 we will axe attacks, stop the crime, fix the budget, and build the homes! Let's bring it home
00:03:13.620 for Punjab. We got to restore Canada. There's no other option. 0.97
