Mr. Speaker, the Canadian government is very concerned about the detention of some Sikh Canadians who have been travelling to India.
To be more specific, recently there was a case in which a Canadian was held for about a week and others recently for shorter periods of time.
Our high commissioner in New Delhi has followed up on every case of detention that he has been aware of and through him and other officials here in Ottawa we have relayed to the government in India our concern about this issue and hope that it will be dealt with.
