Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the Ministry of Transport Are Investigating Sikh Separatist Threats Against Air India, as Relations Unravel Between Ottawa and New Delhi
Once upon a time there were two big countries, India and Canada, who were very happy with each other in their bilateral relations, and seemed on the right track to sign a promising Trade Agreement.
But it was during – and right after – the G20 Summit in New Delhi that this happy story was derailed, when Canadian PM Justin Trudeau dramatically accused Indian authorities of involvement in the Assassination of a prominent Sikh activist – or terrorist, if you adhere to the Indian denomination – in Canadian territory.
India strenuously denied any participation and urged Canada to curb Kalistani terrorism brewing inside their country.
The diplomatic relations unraveled as Canada said it only harbored the right to free speech by separatists not political terrorism.
