The TV show was removed from Rawal TV for unknown reasons.
AN OPEN MESSAGE FOR PAKISTAN CONSULATE OFFICE IN TORONTO FROM TAHIR ASLAM GORA
Dated: 20th Feb, 2013
Friends,
I could not find a minute yesterday for Facebook and Twitter. In the meanwhile, I kept receiving hundreds messages through Email, Facebook, Twitter, Text and phone calls since last 48 hours and everyone was asking me the same question that what happened with the Kashmiri Hindu Pandits' talk in my show?
I couldn't conduct my investigation for a while because I was busy in some important meetings, followed by attending Honourable Prime Minister Stephan Harper's special announcement ceremony at Ahmaddiya Mosque Maple. It was also a pleasure to meet honourable Prime Minister there.
Afterwards, I spend a fair amount of time to investigate why my talk-show video has been removed from Rawal TV's website and its youtube channel.
I have learnt very clearly that some of Pakistan Consulate officials in Toronto have clearly pressurized Rawal TV to remove my show. Some of those officials are even in my friend lists on Facebook. Shame on them & shame on Pakistan's dictatorial mindset establishment!!
This is clearly against the diplomatic rules. In my confirmed reports, they shouted at Rawal TV owners and used all sorts of unethical, non-diplomatic and tribal tactics to stop this show. Unfortunately, a non-professional Islamist Camera man is involved with Pakistan Consulate's heinous act. This camera man shouted at my guests, Hindu Pandits, at Rawal TV during the recording.
If Pakistani diplomats in Canada got an agenda to threaten, intimidate or harass Canadian journalists and citizens then they are clearly surpassing their boundaries. Make no mistake that this is not Pakistan where Pakistani establishment kidnap Journalists and kill them. This is Canada. If these Pakistani diplomats don't know how to behave in a civilized society they should go back. If they don't know how to deal a free press in Canada I can advise them to study in a same school of journalism where I have studies and learnt the values of free expression.
If Pakistani diplomats in Canada have something in their mind in terms of provoking their Jihadi mindset militants in Canada against journalists like myself they should think a thousand times before carrying out any hidden plan.
Make no mistake Pakistani diplomats in Canada that I and my fellow journalists are taking your threats very seriously
These diplomats think that Canadians of Pakistani origin could only be Pakistan loving people if they follow their dictatorial mindset, their intelligence agencies' dictations and their set 'national lies'. No, they are wrong. Actually, this establishment is against Pakistan. This establishment has destroyed the Pakistan.
In fact, we independent thinkers care Pakistan not this dictatorial mindset establishment because we want truth to prevail and lies to die.
