Kim Bolan has a reputation for putting together lies about the Sikh community, and hand-picking negative stories to focus on so that she can achieve her goals of portraying the Sikh community in a negative light. However, the larger community is starting to recognize that Sikhs are an integral part of the fabric of Canadian culture. We have been here for over 100 years as a community, and we have contributed to various fields in immensely productive and positive ways. Kim Bolan can try all she wants to bring down a large community of responsible Canadian citizens just because of their choice of faith, which also happens to be the most universal and humanitarian faith ideology available to humans in this age, but she will not be successful in bringing this community down.

Sikhs do have one voice in all of North America and it is my favourite newspaper, —World Sikh news, their e-mail is http://www.worldsikhnews.com/
This newspaper speaks for Sikhs and also gives the true Sikh opinion unlike Kim Bolan which gives only the pro-Hindu nonsense, and her statements can in essence be called slander considering just how far she goes. A total boycott of CanWest is necessary. In my businesses I refuse to have anything associated with CanWest which includes the Vancouver Sun, Province, Times Colonist and National Post newspapers.
The World Sikh News is the newspaper to support.

In kim bolan’s recently speech against Sikhs. She alleges
how many Sikh temples are again displaying banners supporting the creation of Khalistan as if to say to support self determination of a Sikh sovereign nation in their own homeland (punjab), is some how against the law or is immoral or unethnical. I would put it to her that her work is to provide a smoke screen for the covert state terrorism (ie raw indian govt agents)that Indian uses from time to time on foreign soil.

This bolan needs to be sued for defemation, she is a poisonous snake who is funded by right wing hindu fundamenatalist groups who in turn are funded by the Indian Union.

Publisher of Hindustan Times buying shares from CanWest unit. CanWest Global Communications Corp. said Friday June 08 / 2007 its subsidiary, CanWest MediaWorks Ireland Holdings, has accepted a takeover offer from HT Media LTD., publisher of India’s Hindustan Times, for $296-million. HT Media will buy all the shares CanWest MediaWorks Ireland Holdings holds in CanWest MediaWorks Ltd’s New Zeland operations– about 70%–for $1.87 apiece. The acquisition requires approval from New Zeland’s overseas Investment office, expected early next week. A week after that, the shares amounting to $296-million will be transferred. CanWest Global Communications Corp. is Canada’s largest media company. Its subsidiary, CanWest MediaWorks Ltd., represents more than 65 television, radio, newspaper and online brands across Canada as well as several abroad. HT Media Ltd., is controlled by Australian private equity firm Ironbridge Capital Pty Ltd. Its flagship New Delhi-based publication, Hindustan Times, has a circulation of 2.25 million copies.

The following article was published in the GLOBE AND MAIL newspaper on the internet on Sunday June 10 / 2007.

From this article it is clear who the employees are of CanWest and Kim Bolan in particular. When CanWest shares fall, the Hindus come and buy their shares. Also it is important to understand just what 2007-1985=22 years of Air India trial really were. It was psychological warfare designed to isolate Sikhs, cause division, lower morale, making Sikhs lose pride in their religion, way of life, etc. Whatever is printed by Kim Bolan is pro-Hindu propaganda. I have myself asked the editors of this newspaper the Vancouver Sun to consider changing the name of this Anti-Sikh newspaper to the Hindu Sun more than once. Since the Hindustan Times are taking over this company I intend to ask them again and as usual one gets no response.

Gentlemen,

You have made a very good observation. The Vancouver Sun, thinks it can decide to call you what it wants in its paper. But has overlooked one important factor. That it you, and you alone of the Sikh Community that can decide who and what you are. It is all very well to stick or create names, but also the right of those upon who it is used to challenge it. I guess many years back they called the American blacks Negroes, but let the Vancouver Sun, use that terminology today and see what happens.

I will also let you read many of my articles on varied subjects, so that you will understand me better.

Sincerely,

Kenneth T. Tellis

robin gill is def. an associate with the Vancouver Sun. Did you even read the article? The Vancouver Sun is a joke. How is generalizing the truth of our community?

I dont blame the papers at all. They are speaking the truth about our community.

And what’s this BS about ‘Indo-Canadians’ anyway. Half of us hate India, support Khalistan.

The Sun is being nice to us : they are saying Indo- Canadians to save our feelings…they should actually be saying ‘Sikh Canadians’.

I wonder if Kim Bolan has ever read the book ‘Soft Target’ I think it would shut her up once and for all!

Give the Sun, Province and Global BC bad publicity with the protests by inviting national and city media outlets(globe and mail, CBC, City TV etc.) to cover them….and stop making these bizarre linkages of crime and domestic violence to your culture yourself…this is what they want. This is what Gill, Oppal etc. are giving them. There is nothing like bad publicity for a media outlet, make them the butt of jokes like Fox news and the Toronto Sun(no connection to Canwest) are. Eventually they will become the pariah among Vancouver media outlets. The Sun’s readership is declining, already, as many readers in a left-leaning Vancouver don’t like their right-wing agenda.
