Canada New PM: The arrogance of former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau seems to be breaking soon. Trudeau recently suffered a major setback due to his controversial attitude with India, when he had to resign from the post of Prime Minister due to having a minority government. Now Canada is looking for a new Prime Minister, and in this race, the names of two Hindu leaders of Indian origin are leading. This has created the possibility of making history in Canada, as the country may get its first Hindu Prime Minister. This news can prove to be another big setback for Justin Trudeau.Anita Anand: A major contenderIndian-origin leader Anita Anand's name is at the forefront in the race for the post of Prime Minister. Anita Anand has already been the Minister of Transport in Justin Trudeau's government. She entered Parliament for the first time from the Oakville region of Canada in 2019. Her background is very impressive. Anita Anand's father Dr. SV Anand and her mother Dr. Saroj D Ram had migrated from India to Canada.Anita was born on 20 May 1967 in Kentville, Nova Scotia. She studied law from the University of Toronto and made her mark in the field of law. Her husband John Knowlton is a famous lawyer and businessman. With her hard work and honesty, Anita has achieved a special place in Canadian politics.Chandra Arya: Journey from Karnataka to CanadaThe name of another Indian-origin leader Chandra Arya is also emerging rapidly in the race for the post of Prime Minister. Chandra Arya was born in the Indian state of Karnataka. He is a member of the Canadian Parliament and is known for his clear ideology. Chandra Arya has made many big promises in his election campaign, including the proposal to make Canada a sovereign nation, recognize Palestine, increase the retirement age and introduce a citizenship-based tax system.Chandra Arya has a great influence in Canadian politics. He has also raised the issues of the Indian community prominently. His hard work and dedication have made him a strong candidate for the post of Prime Minister.Big setback for TrudeauIf the next Prime Minister of Canada is of Indian origin, it will be a big setback for Justin Trudeau. Trudeau has already been in controversies regarding his relations with India. In such a situation, a leader of Indian origin reaching the top post of Canada will be a strong message for him.Due to Trudeau's policies and anti-India stance, relations between Canada and India had become sour. Now if either Anita Anand or Chandra Arya becomes the Prime Minister, a new chapter can be added to the relations between India and Canada.Growing power of Indian community in Canadian politicsThe role of Indian community in Canadian politics is continuously increasing. The influence of leaders of Indian origin is being seen not only in politics but also in other fields. Both Anita Anand and Chandra Arya are famous for their hard work and leadership ability. If any of them becomes the Prime Minister, it will be a new record in the history of Canada.Final thoughtsThe process of selecting a new Prime Minister of Canada has raised expectations in the Indian community. With the candidature of leaders like Anita Anand and Chandra Arya, it is clear that the stature of leaders of Indian origin is increasing in Canadian politics.Now it remains to be seen who the people of Canada choose as their next leader. If Canada gets its first Hindu Prime Minister, it will be a matter of pride not only for the country but also for the Indian community.
