Canada Expels Indian Diplomats In Tit-For-Tat Move Amid Deepening Rift

Canedian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has expelled India’s High Commissioner and five diplomats after police uncovered evidence linking them to a targeted campaign against Canadian citizens, including the June 2023 assassination of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Trudeau condemned the involvement of a foreign government in threatening and killing Canadians on their own soil, stating Canada would not tolerate such actions. The escalating dispute has intensified as Canada identified the six Indian diplomats as persons of interest in the case.
