Hard to believe a rally like this took place with people openly carrying weapons. Even worse the leader of a major political party was present there. SMH I have to admit, it does seem like a very close knit community.
What they are carrying are Kirpans. It is one of the five articles of faith that every Sikh must carry on their persons at all times.
This was misunderstood by many other Canadians years ago, but not so much anymore. At least out here in BC and most likely Ontario where we have large populations of Indians who are Sikh.
I am not the one that brought up Latinos into the conversation. If she was simply talking about time lines why bring Latinos into this?? Accuse us of being resentful and jealous of sikhs? Saying we are less industrious? If that's true of us than it is also true of average white Canadians as I looked it up and South asian families and Asians in general make more than white families. If college degrees and money are all that matter well whites are in the same boat as the rest of us here. The vast majority of sikh are not from old communties.
I only said those other things in response to her. And yes silence is complicity. In any case i never advocated for more latinos here. I actually discourage them from coming to Canada. I plan on eventually leaving myself. That should make you happy.
I'm not getting into an argument about latinos.
Silence on CD is not complicity.
Sometimes a post is not read or missed. Sometimes a person has to actually leave their device and do something in the real world and may not respond immediately, or by the time they do, the thread has moved on.
So again, do NOT take me not commenting on something as being complicit.

Most kirpans that they regularly carry are small. In anycase case that rally was held by an extremist group. I guess you over looked that part.
Quite a bit different from Quebec separatist. I honestly wouldn't blame Quebecois for being separatist now.
Comparing sikh extremist to Quebec separatist is insane.

Not only are you complicit you backed her up. lol again i am not the one that brought latinos up.
But Natnasci just said, for example, that there aren't many Jamaicans out West.
I hardly noticed those details even though I'm such a gourmand, always thinking of the Jamaican patties.
I did mention somewhere that one of my oncologists is a "Colombian", and I would never trade him for anyone else. I also met a "Venezuelan" and a "Peruvian" not too long ago, both in the healthcare industry.
Coming back to "Indo Canadians have a more close-knit community" OR NOT, one possibility is the nature of their family business such as owning a gas station. In Vancouver area, many of them are home builders, and often run like a family business. New comers could pay a couple hundreds of dollars and pass all the eight subjects within a stipulated timeframe to qualify for a new residential builder license as a general contractor.

* introductory sales training course and a mandatory requirement for prospective New Home Sales Agents https://www.homebuilders.mb.ca/our-m...ter-renovator/
* Master Builder and Master Renovator certification programs
The certification program consists of two separate designations:
- The Certified Housing Professional (CHP), granted to an individual
- The Certified Master Builder/Master Renovator, granted to a home building/renovation company.
To become a Certified Master Builder/Renovator, a company must have a CHP on staff. All individuals must have had five years’ experience in the housing industry.
The designated CHP must complete eight hours of professional development.
Sad that person would throw Quebec in the convo like that. Specially since they said they don't want to go off topic. They completely overlooked the extremism part.

You totally missed my point. I'm not equating them.
I'm also not comparing the two in the way you think.
I am making the point, that one group does not represent the whole.
Sikh separatists don't represent all Sikhs, and Quebec separatists don't represent all Quebeckers.
You seem to be wanting to say that Indians are not good immigrants, by highlighting a group of Sikh separatists and a terrorist.
It doesn't make any sense.
