CD's,
I am posting this incident which happened to me in Newin Centre (Dundas-Hwy-10) near Dosa Corner (near the toilet) so that CD's are more careful when they visit that place and also as a caution so as to not to be duped by this person :
On Sunday, after church, me and 2 more family members (around noon) went to the food court of the Newin centre and took a seat outside Dosa corner-the dosa specialist. We ate Biriyani from a pak. restaurant and I suppose would have conversed in Tamil. After eating the Biriyani, I was still hungry and hence told the 2 family members to go and order Dosa while I was guarding their jackets.
Immediately Out of nowhere, A sri lankan (guy in his 50's, just 2 upper teeth, a brown carlie chaplin hat) came and asked me if i was from Chennai (it is tehir way of asking if i was a tamil from Tamil nadu). I told him yes. He then told me that he had no money to go to Toronto and asked if i could give him $2. I had just $ 1.50 (in loose change in my pocket) but still i told him that i was also broke. But then after saying that , I pitied him and gave him the $1.50. He told me that he was working as a cleaner in Newin Centre and that was why he was smelling. I only then found that he was fully drunk. He then showed me his purse (which has a TD ATM Card, Visa Credit card-as i could see). He then went on blabbering, only half of which i could follow. He then asked my name and my family members name which i gave him. He then told me that he knew how to cheat the govt. and told me that if i leave his name, phone no. and SIN card he could get me $1500 from the govt. + child tax benefit. I told him that i was working as a draftsman for $12 an hour for which he told me that I should not work for payroll but work for cash so as to get money from the govt. He told me to show him my SIN number which i refused. He then told me to come to Newin centre whenever i was ready and give it to him.
At this point, I was very frustrated with him and started to walk away from him. He started to follow me uttering the same words. All the people at the Newin food centre started to watch me and he was walking in circle to avoid him. No one in the food court even bothered to help me or come to my rescue but most of them were laughing / smiling sarcastically. I told him to stop bothering me but he did not listen but was blabering something in Tamil.
Luckily after some time, he disappeared in to the corrider near the toilet.
I am posting this so that any one who visits the Newin Food court will be more careful next time.
Thanks
TK A

Hello tamilkuravan...

May I know wht a srilankan drunken man is doing in canadiandesi? can u explain me this?

If u know 4 words in english...u don't have any rights to talk about others...got it...

Who r u man?..wht's the relationship between u and the srilankan tamils?

hope u werent drunk...

Y don't u talk abt Mr Ananda Krishnan (whose parents migrated there as white-collar workers while indian tamils were brought as tea plantations labourers) who is the 2nd richest malaysian and the richest tamilian in the world...he is also a sri lankan tamil...

I can also start a topic here....why did mr Karunanithe the pm of tamilnadu got married 3 times? why did an uneducated tamil get married to a dog (I think tht dog's name was Selvi)? Y don't indian tamils give freedom to their wives? I was also told by an indian tamil not to believe his patriots..

First...u avoid talking about srilankan tamils..will u ?????

Don't act smart..;)

Desis..y do u allow...tamilkuravan here?...it will be really good if he tries to find any website from tamilnadu...

Thushara - Looks like you are so fired up so much to defend SriLankan Tamils in this forum by constantly referring successful and sober Tamils !!

Real maturity is in accepting the negative side of any community even if it is yours.. While I don't always agree wz TK's views , I think he is trying to highlight an issue and not any community though unfortunately the trouble maker this time is from your community..

Pls learn to look into a Bigger picture..
