Trudeau promises to meet with MP responsible for inviting Jaspal Atwal to events in India

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he will sit down with Liberal MP Randeep Sarai sometime next week to discuss his invitation of a known would-be assassin to two receptions in India.
The Conservative party is pushing for further action, calling for an emergency meeting of the public safety and national security committee to review the Privy Council Office's screening practices.
Jaspal Atwal, a former member of an illegal Sikh separatist group who was convicted of attempted murder, attended at least one event tied to the Trudeau visit where he was pictured with Sophie Trudeau and Minister of Infrastructure and Communities Amarjeet Sohi.
He also was invited to dine with the prime minister at a formal event hosted by the Canadian High Commissioner Thursday in Delhi, but that invitation was later rescinded.
"This is a situation that obviously is unacceptable and we will follow up on it ... This individual should never have been invited," Trudeau told reporters Friday.
"I will be having a conversation with that MP in Canada next week."
Sarai, a Surrey Centre MP, sent out a statement earlier this week taking the blame.
"Let me be clear — this person should never have been invited in the first place," the statement said.
"I alone facilitated his request to attend this important event. I should have exercised better judgment, and I take full responsibility for my actions."
Trudeau travelled with 14 MPs, but Sarai has drastically lowered his profile since the news broke Wednesday.

The Atwal incident has dominated international headlines on Trudeau's trade trip.
The prime minister also has had to defend his decision to don traditional Indian clothing and has faced criticism for bringing his entire family on the trip.

Rogue political elements

Questions about how Atwal was able to travel to India continue to fester. He was not part of the official Canadian delegation.
A senior government official with knowledge of the prime minister's security protocols suggested to reporters that rogue political elements in India may have orchestrated Atwal's embarrassing invitation in an attempt to make the Canadian government appear sympathetic to Sikh extremism.
Publicly, Trudeau spoke highly of the Indian government and highlighted his Friday meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
"The relationship between the Canadian government and the Indian government is very strong. We had an excellent meeting today," he said.
"Canada's Conservatives have serious questions with respect to how Mr. Atwal, a member of a terrorist organization banned in Canada, was given clearance to attend an event with the prime minister," said public safety critic Pierre Paul-Hus.

"Canadians expect that when the prime minister meets with individuals, whether at home or abroad, there is a process to ensure the proper vetting of individuals to ensure that they do not pose a safety or security risk."

An official spokesperson for the Indian government had no explanation for how Atwal managed to get his name removed from the list of people banned from travelling to the country, or any information to offer on the documents he used to get into India.

That is a huge security breech and the MP obviously has some pretty nasty acquaintances.

All is far from good.

10 REASONS I Voted Liberal

#10. I voted Liberal because I love the fact that I can now marry
whatever I want, I've decided to marry my German Shepherd and get some
marijuana legally.

#9. I voted Liberal because I believe oil companies' profits of 4% on
a litre of gas are obscene, but the government taxing the same litre
at more than 18% isn't.

#8. I voted Liberal because I believe the government will do a better
job of spending the money I earn than I would.

#7. I voted Liberal because Freedom of Speech is fine as long as
nobody is offended by it.

#6. I voted Liberal because I'm way too irresponsible to own a gun,
and I know that my local police are all I need to protect me from
murderers and thieves. I am also thankful that we have a 911 service
that gets police to your home in order to identify your body and do
the proper paperwork after a home invasion.

#5. I voted Liberal because I'm not concerned about millions of babies
being aborted so long as we keep all death row inmates alive and comfy.

#4. I voted Liberal because I think illegal aliens have a right to free health care, education, and Social Security benefits, and we should take away Social Security from those who paid into it.

#3. I voted Liberal because I believe that businesses should not be
allowed to make profits for themselves. They need to break even and
give the rest away to the government for redistribution as the Liberal
Government sees fit.

#2. I voted Liberal because I believe liberal judges need to rewrite
the Constitution every few days to suit fringe kooks who would never
get their agendas past the voters.

... And, the #1 reason I voted Liberal is because I think it's better to pay $billions$ for oil to people who hate us, but not build our own pipelines because it might upset some endangered beetle, gopher, or fish here in Canada. We don't care about the beetles, gophers, or fish in those other countries. Oh yeah, and I'm really, really glad I voted Liberal because I'm now allowed to pay taxes on my taxes.

Trudi doubled-down at the Canadian High Commission event with not only his garish choice in insulting clothing, but added some gas to the fire with his fumbling around dancing.

That boy is awfully arrogant
