Canada is expelling a top Indian diplomat as it investigates what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau calls credible allegations that India’s government may have had links to the assassination in Canada of a Sikh activist.
Trudeau said Canada has declared its deep concerns to the Indian government."Any involvement of a foreign government in the killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil is an unacceptable violation of our sovereignty.”
Trudeau said he knows there are some members of the Indo-Canadian community who feel angry or frightened, and he called for calm. Opposition New Democrat leader Jagmeet Singh, who is himself Sikh, called it outrageous and shocking. Singh said he grew up hearing stories that challenging India’s record on human rights might prevent you from getting a visa to travel there.
