Deteriorating Ties - News Summed Up

Deteriorating Ties


Tensions have escalated amid allegations that the Indian government is sponsoring clandestine operations and gangs in Canada to target Sikh leaders, leading to retaliation from the Sikh community. Canada’s inability to offer sufficient protection, resulting in the murder of Sikh leaders, has left the community feeling vulnerable and compelled to act independently. These groups sought to amplify public discontent, pressuring federal lawmakers within Trudeau’s party and strongly condemning the incident. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi seized the moment to criticise Canada for failing its citizens, echoing Canada’s earlier reproaches in a tit-for-tat diplomatic sparring. The Sikh community holds significant political influence in Canada, being vital to Trudeau’s electoral base and an integral part of Canadian society.
