Sir:
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
Identifying Tamils tough task for officials, you said.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Really!ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ This is just a case of trying to identify
492 illegal Tamil migrants who were brought in by human-traffickers on MV Sun Sea.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ It would beƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ a cake-walk
I thought for us smart-alec Canadians.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
This is a hoot.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Remember, it was not long ago when almost all of Canada was bludgeoning
Sri Lanka with baseball bats and whipping her with horse-whips and cycle-chains for taking long
to identify the real Tamil Tiger terroristsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ from the innocent civiliansƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ among the 300,000 Tamils who
were liberated by the Sri Lankan Government forces from the clutches of the Tamil Tigers who
were holding them as a human shield for 35 months.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ Canadians demanded that Sri Lanka release them
from their welfare villages immediately and let them walk onto to the terrain which were pocked with
landmines like a field of mushrooms and no houses to go to, as they had been destroyed
duringƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ the 27 year war and not knowing whereƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ they can find food to eat, when it was
all provided by the Government in their welfare camps.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ That is how insane we Canadians were
and so were the International Human Rights organizations.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
We were blinkered not to see the miracles happening in front of our eyes.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The Sri Lankan Government
had processed 240,000 Tamils in 11 monthsƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ and sent them on to a landmine cleared terrain and newly
built homes, while CanadaƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ is going toƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ take almost a year to process 492 Tamils.
Sri Lanka cooked a million meals a day to feed the 300,000 displaced Tamil peoples thrice a day and
cooked by the Sinhalese that the Tamils complain about.ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚ The medical facilities were adequate to keep
away sicknesses which comes with such human tragedy.
ƒÆ’-¡ƒ”š‚
This is a realty check for us Canadians who have lots of misplaced bleeding-hearts among us.
