OTTAWA, Sept 19 — Canada is not trying to provoke India by suggesting it was linked to the murder of a Sikh separatist leader, but wants New Delhi to address the issue properly, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said today.
Trudeau told reporters that the case, which has derailed protracted talks on a potential bilateral trade deal, had far-reaching consequences in international law. “We wanted to make sure that we had a solid grounding in understanding what was going on... we wanted to make sure we were taking the time to talk with our allies,” Trudeau said when asked why Ottawa had revealed its hand now.
Canada has the largest population of Sikhs outside Punjab, with about 770,000 people reporting Sikhism as their religion in the 2021 census.
