Ban on Pakistani Flights to Canada Clubbing with Neighbor is Disproportionate – Raza Bashir

Ottawa; 30 April 2021 – Pakistani High Commissioner to Canada Raza Bashir Tarar  tells Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) that Canada’s suspension of flights from Pakistan by clubbing it with a much larger neighbor with a massively higher volume of corona virus positive cases, is disproportionate.

The H.C expressed hope that  flights would resume between the two countries after the 30-day period to facilitate families separated by the ban.

Appearing in the CBC’s most-watched political show *Power and Politics*, the High Commissioner further said that Pakistan has already offered whatever help it can, to India as the pandemic is a global issue requiring joint efforts, and also mentions Canada’s support to countries, including Pakistan, to fight the COVID-19.
