Bots and Indian TV push fake news about Canada in wake of Hindu temple clashes - CBC News discovered hundreds of suspicious accounts boosting misleading information from Canadian influencers
A wave of misinformation about Canadian institutions is being amplified by suspected bot accounts on social media and by pro-Modi news outlets in India, raising concerns it could imperil relations between Sikhs and Hindus in Canada.
CBC News reviewed hundreds of posts on X and dozens of hours of footage streamed on YouTube in the days before and after clashes outside Hindu temples in Surrey, B.C., and Brampton, Ont., in November.
The analysis identified several posts containing misleading and inflammatory comments about the Khalistan movement — which advocates for an independent state for Sikhs — and Sikh Canadians in general that were recirculated by suspicious accounts.
In 1988, #India issued an order forbidding the import of Salman #Rushdie’s novel. A #Delhi #Court has overturned the order, not because of free speech, but because no one could find it.
Democracy at its best. If you can't present your invoices to the tax office, then you can expect heavy penalties but why should we keep our records, we are the government after all so trust us!

What effect do #sanctions have? The West has been sanctioning North #Korea for 60 years and the country still exists.
Even worse, it has been able to develop nuclear weapons despite sanctions. But the #world has become much more diverse since the end of the Cold #War. With its misguided foreign #policy, the West has failed to bring emerging states such as #India, #Brazil and #SouthAfrica on board. These states are currently doing business with #Russia and #China is doing the rest to keep Russia going.
