[b]Toronto, 30 April, (Asiantribune.com):[/b]Canadian Police is cracking down hard on the Tamil Tigers of Canada after the federal government listed them as a terrorist organization them last month.

The raid of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) on the World Tamil Movement (WTM) in Toronto last week led to the temporary closing down of the Tamil community newspaper, confiscation of Tiger literature and CD’s and DVD’s.

It also raided 'Asian Textiles' one of the biggest textile marts located in Scarborough. Police are reported to have removed some documents found in the shop along with LTTE flags and photographs of Prabakaran.

Toronto Star reported that Police withdrew its officers from a community event organized by WTM. The "Muththamil"> event – a music, dance and drama festival – was to be held yesterday to honor those declared as patriots by Velupillai Prabhakaran, the leader of the Tigers hiding in the jungle of Vanni. But when the Police withdrew its officers from the event it was cancelled.

Thanks for the title "After the ban Canadian Tamils hit hard by the Police"

Yes, it is Tamil Canadians, not LTTE, who has been hit hard by the police.

Tamils were happy under Mulroney government as well. It is only under the Reform party which is hiding behind the conservative party's name to get Ontario votes who has problems with Tamils.

A good start, anyhow another program organized by TVI and CMR 101.3 M “KONDADDAM” coming on. This is a multicultural program.

But Canadian lawyers only making money from all these. For LTTE/ WTM without any financial difficulties spending the Tamils hard earned money.

The Canadian authorities have to audit these people’s accounts, transactions and payments.

These funds coming from where?

Already “THAMILLOSAI” radio sponsored “PONMALAIPOLLUTHU” held with very success in Toronto with Mr. Abdul Hamid, MR. S.P. Balasubramaniam and other leading Indian artists. In the end the revenue from these programs going in to LTTE’s hand.[/b]

Quote, [i]“The editor of the paper, Navaratnam Kamalavasan, said the raids last week have put future publications in jeopardy. However, an edition was published last night, Ruby confirmed.” [/i]– Toronto star.

[b]The Canadian authorities have to raid this editor’s house bank accounts, tax returns, investments, house purchase details, current appraisal with renovations…………..Tamils hard earned money in the name of “LTTE investment” to the LTTE………..but?????

Like these so many people enjoying in Tamils hard earned money.

And the authorities have to nab the sponsors for these events.

Anyhow, thank you KTR.[/b]

After the ban Canadian Tamils hit hard by the Police

The Tamils in Canada feel much free and relaxed now because of the ban on the LTTE. The silent majority of the Canadian Tamils will now support the Conservative party.

That guy, Sinnathamby Sittampalam is lying through his teeth saying that the WTM has nothing to do with the LTTE. Every Tamil and the RCMP know that WTM is nothing but a LTTE front organization.

I am a Tamil. Many of my friends are Tamil. They expressed their happyness at the banning of LTTE. There is no use claiming that the Tamils are upset over the ban (of LTTE). Only those who lived on the illusion of LTTE and did business (fund rasing etc.)in their name are upset, and of course, most of the Tamil tabloids are also upset.

What to do? time keeps changing, so does the history.

Let me get this right...Canada applies its anti terrorist laws and tamils in Canada don't feel safe any more? And even worse, they want to come back to Sri Lanka! This is bad.

I heard the latest talk in Canada is that Tamils feel they are not safe in Canada anymore and they have no future there. So they are talking about speeding up the process so they can return to their homeland.

Canada has been a safe heaven for The LTTE for 12 years of the liberal rule. The Liberals played politics at the expense of development of Sri Lanka all this time. Now the tide has been changed. Conservatives has some principles when it comes to global terrorism. They can not play politics at the expense of lives of 18 million people . if they do , they would lose the support of the people from the western Canada who are bed rock of the conservative movement in Canada. Conservative government understands that stumbling block that prevents achieving peace in Sri Lanka is the mortal fear that the LTTE has for the democracy.

Thank you.
