In a recent interview with Nepal's Namaste Radio Toronto, Pierre Poilievre, the leader of Canada's Conservative Party and main opponent to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, slammed Trudeau's handling of the diplomatic row with India. Poilievre accused Trudeau of reducing himself to a "laughing stock" in India, the world's largest democracy. As the election season approaches, Poilievre vowed to restore a "professional relationship" with India if his party comes to power.

The strained relationship between Canada and India has hit its lowest point in recent months, with Trudeau accusing Delhi of involvement in the murder of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar. This accusation has only fueled the fire of discontent between the two countries.

Poilievre placed the blame squarely on Trudeau, describing him as "incompetent and unprofessional." He criticized Trudeau for his handling of foreign policy and accused him of allowing Beijing to interfere in Canadian affairs. Poilievre also claimed that US President Joe Biden was treating Trudeau like a doormat.

"This is another example of how Justin Trudeau is not worth the cost after eight long years," Poilievre declared, referring to the deterioration of relations with major powers such as India and China. He emphasized the need for a professional relationship with the Indian government, acknowledging that disagreements and holding each other accountable are part of the diplomatic process.

The opposition leader's scathing remarks highlighted his commitment to restoring Canada's reputation and strengthening international relations. As he prepares to challenge Trudeau in the upcoming general elections in 2025, Poilievre's criticism of Trudeau's handling of the India-Canada diplomatic row signals his intention to rally support by presenting himself as a capable leader who can rebuild Canada's image on the global stage.

It remains to be seen how the ongoing diplomatic tension between Canada and India will impact the political landscape in the years ahead. However, Poilievre's criticism has brought the spotlight onto Trudeau's foreign policy decisions and the need for a more professional approach in international diplomacy. As the political landscape continues to evolve, the future of Canada-India relations and its implications for global politics will undoubtedly remain a key topic of discussion.
