Discussion on Hewage v Canada (Prime Minister) Federal Court decision

An application was brought forward against Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for judicial review, challenging his message on Tamil Genocide Remembrance Day, issued on May 18, 2023. The primary intention of this Application was to obtain a legal position regarding the alleged Tamil genocide, whether the prime minister declared or recognized it. Canada’s top court, the Federal Court, rejected the Tamil genocide, saying no such declaration or recognition.

More details and analysis of the federal court decision will be discussed during the meeting.

Proposed City of Brampton Tamil genocide monument

Mayor Partick Brown promised to build a Tamil genocide monument in Chinguacousy Park in Bampton. Legal proceedings have been commenced against the City of Brampton.

The meeting will provide current updates on legal proceedings and what to expect in the coming months.
