Tell me again why we should import problems that have nothing to do with Canada?

Because its a globalized world today, what happens here happens there too. COVID is a perfect example of that.

COVID is contagious. Political violence in Balochistan is not contagious. Using COVID as an example of how Canada cannot keep trouble out just ends up emphasizing that, even in a globalized world, some troubles can be kept out.

Checking on Wikipedia

In Iran, separatist fighting has reportedly not gained as much ground as the conflict in Pakistan,[32] but has grown and become more sectarian since 2012,[29] with the majority-Sunni Baloch showing a greater degree of Salafist and anti-Shia ideology in their fight against the Shia-Islamist Iranian government.

Wow! That is a problem that Canada really needs to stay away from.

Political violence in Balochistan becomes contagious if Canada tries to benefit from it. A large part of PM Trudeau's voter base consist of "Khalistani separatist sikhs" who are close to Pakistan's ISI (the same agency that killed this girl). In fact, the Canadian top security guy (Trudeau's second in command) is a Sikh/Sardar himself having links with the ISI. Trudeau often tries to appease this extremist voter base by bending extra and even overlooking some serious laws as he might again try to do in this case, thus its a very dangerous political game Canada is playing.
