Who said what about the attack?

Khalistan supporters are attacking the people who came to the temple.
Nepean MP Chandra Arya
Khalistani extremists have crossed the border, marking the rise of brazen violent extremism in Canada. The attack by Khalistanis on devotees at the temple shows how deep extremism has become in Canada. The MP said that under freedom of speech, Khalistan extremists have been given a free pass. Hindu-Canadians must come forward to defend themselves and fight for their rights. They have to put pressure on their leaders.
Toronto MP Kevin Vuong
Attacks on Hindu Canadians are alarming. Canada has become a safe haven for Khalistani extremists. Our leaders have failed to protect Hindus. We are all entitled to worship in peace.
Hindu Canadian Foundation
Khalistan terrorists are attacking the Hindu Sabha temple. Children, women and men are being attacked. All this is happening at the instigation of supporters of Khalistan politicians.
Hindus and Indians worried about supporters of Khalistan
The Indian community has been concerned about the targeting of Hindu temples and community members in Canada for some time now. In the past few years, Hindu temples have been vandalized in the Greater Toronto Area, British Columbia and elsewhere in Canada.
Accusation of India – PM Trudeau is doing anti-India politics for vote bank
Relations between India and Canada have been on the decline for over a year. It started after the killing of pro-Khalistan leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June 2020. In September last year, PM Trudeau alleged in Parliament that Indian agencies were involved in the killing of Niger.
After this, Trudeau accused Indian diplomats of involvement in the October 13 Nijjar massacre last month. After this, India recalled six of its diplomats, including Sanjay Verma. India says the Canadian government's allegations are baseless. Canada has not shared a single piece of evidence with the Indian government. They are making claims without facts. The Trudeau government is deliberately trying to malign India for political gain.
India's Ministry of External Affairs said in a press conference last month that PM Trudeau's enmity with India has been going on for a long time. His cabinet includes people who are openly affiliated with extremist organizations.
