Wastefellows

Wastefellows welcomes Jastej Trudeu (@Sturgeons_Law) for the inaugural episode of our new series Diaspora Gone Wild. In Part 1 of this two part series on the rise and fall of iconic slain Punjabi-Canadian gangster Bindy Johal, we talk about the history of Punjabi immigration to Canada, the emergence of Indo gangsterism in 90s Vancouver, the Canadian media's obsession with Bindy Johal, and the trauma inflicted upon us by the Deepa Mehta film 'Beeba Boys.'
