From Karnataka To Canada: Indian-Origin MP Chandra Arya Enters PM Race
Indian-origin Canadian MP Chandra Arya has officially entered the race to become Canada's next Prime Minister. A Liberal MP representing Nepean, Mr Arya outlined his plans to make Canada “a sovereign republic,” raise the retirement age, implement a citizenship-based tax system and officially recognise the state of Palestine. Born in Karnataka, Mr Arya's announcement follows Justin Trudeau’s resignation, as the party sets March 9 as the date for electing its new leader.
