India is a pretty good caricature of Eric Cartman from South Park.
When it’s Canada: “Fuck you, I’ll do what I want”
When it’s the US: “Screw you guys, I’m going home”

It was also funny to see the leader of our opposition effectively parrot India’s argument, asking for proof of the allegations.
Polievre doesn’t know what’s going on because he doesn’t have a security clearance. He doesn’t have a security clearance because if he did he couldn’t whine about, “our right to know” and couldn’t tell people what he knew if he did. It’s all transparent political theater that the maple MAGA crowd eat right up.
Oh without a doubt.
I just find it funny to watch.
The rest of the G7 are watching as is the rest of the civilized world. Assassinating a citizen of a country on that country’s sovereign territory is a big fucking deal diplomatically. The G7 will want to stamp that shit right the fuck out before Modi starts trying that shit in their countries.
This is a major embarrassment for Modi and Indian because it was so club fistedly amateurish.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he believes India’s relations with Canada may have undergone “a tonal shift” in the days since the unsealing of a U.S. indictment alleging a conspiracy to murder a Sikh activist on American soil.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government reacted with scorn and flat denials when Trudeau stated publicly in the House of Commons on September 18 that there was credible intelligence linking India to the June 18 shooting death of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar outside a temple in Surrey, B.C.
The indictment said that American authorities had thwarted an assassination plot linked to India in their own territory — one with ties to Nijjar and a scheme to kill Canadians.
The indictment alleges that Indian officials in New Delhi offered $100,000 to a drug dealer named Nikhil Gupta to hire a hitman to kill Pannun in New York.
The U.S. has continued to show concern about the alleged murder-for-hire plot, which was a topic of conversation between the two countries again last week when FBI Director Christopher Wray visited New Delhi.
Although both the U.S. and Canada have focused their messages to India on the need to investigate, officials in both countries say privately that they do not believe the Modi government was really unaware of the alleged assassination — which bears the hallmarks of a state-directed operation and does not appear to be the work of rogue agents.
