 Sri Lanka, in reference to the Private Member Bill 104 presented in 2019 to the Ontario Legislative Assembly, urged those concerned to consider a balanced view and not to be swayed by prejudicial viewpoints propagated by certain anti-Sri Lanka activists in Canada, a statement from the Foreign Affairs Ministry said.  

 

The statement said the High Commission and the Consulate General in Toronto continue engagement in this regard with both the Federal and Provincial Authorities.  


“Sri Lanka’s firm protest against the blatantly false claims being made in the Bill including the grossly exaggerated number of casualties at the conclusion of the conflict in Sri Lanka and allegations of “genocide” have been conveyed. It is observed that several Sri Lanka groups and individuals in Canada have also engaged the Canadian authorities against the misrepresentations in the politically motivated Private Member Bill. The Missions in Canada will continue to remain engaged with relevant organisations during the process.
