After attacking India, Khalistanis are now urging their newfound enemies- the "White people" in Canada to "go back to Europe, where you came from."

In a video shared on X, a group of Khalistanis are seen marching in the Surrey BC area reportedly during a 'Nagar Kirtan' procession, waving flags and playing music as they declare their ownership of the Canadian land.

"We are proud Canadians, this is our country, we are owner of this country. you are from Europe, go back to Europe you are not Canadian we are Canadian," a man can be heard saying as he asks followers to like and share the video.

Calling Canadians "invaders", the man in the video even calls himself "Native Indian" in a bite, only to continue claiming Canada to be a Khalistani country as he yells, "go back Simon, go back."

This comes at a time when the relations between India and Canada are severely strained following Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's allegations in September last year of a “potential” involvement of Indian agents in Khalistan extremist Hardeep Singh Nijjar's killing.

New Delhi rejected Trudeau's charges as “absurd”.

Nijjar, a Canadian citizen, was designated a terrorist by India.

India has been maintaining that the main issue between the two countries is that of Canada giving space to pro-Khalistan elements operating from Canadian soil with impunity.

New Delhi has trashed the allegation and accuses Ottawa of doing next to nothing to stop the activities of Khalistani supporters who seek to undermine the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India.

Earlier this month, Khalistani extremist Arshdeep Singh Gill alias Arsh Dalla, who has been designated a terrorist by India, was likely arrested in Canada's Ontario province in connection with a shooting incident.

Recently, the Ministry of External Affairs had named Arsh Dalla as among the Khalistani terrorists for whom extradition requests have been made to Canada.

The Halton police statement said they were actively investigating the "shooting that took place in Milton".
