'Well connected, divert community funds': Canada intelligence report says Khalistani extremists pose national security threat

Canada’s intelligence agency on Friday recognised the threat posed by Khalistani elements in the country. The report by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), tabled in Parliament, said activities of Canada-based Khalistani elements continue to promote a violent extremist agenda.

It also highlighted the anniversary of 1985 Air India Flight 182 Kanishka bombing, stating, “This past year marked the 40th anniversary of the bombing of Air India Flight 182 bombing, whose suspects were members of Canada-based Khalistani extremist (CBKE) groups. It remains to this day the deadliest terrorist attack in Canadian history, with 329 people killed, most of them Canadians. There were no CBKE related attacks in Canada in 2025.”
