Canada’s Department of Finance released a report detailing the funding of terrorist organizations, with a specific focus on Khalistani groups. The report acknowledges that these extremist groups are receiving financial support from Canada, which is then used to fund politically motivated violent activities.
The report, titled ‘Assessment of the Risks of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing in Canada 2025,’ confirms what India has alleged for years: that Khalistani groups operate within Canada and receive financial support. The report identifies several groups including Babbar Khalsa and the International Sikh Youth Federation. These groups are using violent means to establish an independent state in Punjab, India.
