	Jaggi Singh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jaggi Singh (born 1971 in Toronto) is one of Canada's most outspoken activists in the anti-globalization movement.
		The article incorrectly spoke of Singh being Muslim (he was born to a Sikh father and Catholic mother), prone to violence (he is a self-avowed pacifist), that he was proficient in firearms and received training from Kazi Toure, and that the teddybear-catapault had instead been launching molotov cocktails.
		Singh also took part in a protest of Immigration Minister Monte Solberg's speech at the annual meeting of Citizens for Public Justice in 2006, demanding a moratorium on all public deportations.

		Jaggi finds that the writer of the bir does not seem to be a good scribe or to have a good knowledge of the Gurmukhi script or the Punjabi language.[13] Therefore, it is not at all possible to connect this bir with Bhai Sahib.
		Jaggi opines that the age of the paper and the character of words and writing show that it could not have been compiled earlier than a hundred years after the demise of the Tenth Guru.
		Jaggi feels that the condition of the paper, shape of letters, writing, etc., suggest that it is a production of the 19th century.

		Mehtab Singh was successful in putting Massa Ranghar to an ignoble death and hence the volume was preserved as it now is. This, however, as the Sikh savant, Bhai Kahan Singh points out, is a most arbitrary way of settling a point of such literary and theological significance.
		Ratan Singh Jaggi is the only scholar who claims to have examined these four Birs from the point of view of probing their history and origin.
		Jaggi’s examination shows it to be a suspicious interpolation: The ink and writing of this entry are different from that of the original Bir.

	Justice and Jaggi Singh
		If anti-globalization protester Jaggi Singh had been a sex offender or a member of a biker gang, he probably would have been released from prison a lot earlier than Monday evening.
		In ordering that Singh be kept in Orsainville jail, Quebec City Judge Yvon Mercier was at pains to point out that Singh had not, in the judge's estimation, abided by the terms of an earlier probation order.
		Singh, on the other hand, testified in court that on the day he was arrested he stepped to the sidelines during the demonstration to comply with his probation order.
