The current India-Canada crisis has exposed a sharp disconnect between India and the West on the issue of Sikh separatism.
Ever since Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau alleged possible Indian involvement in the June assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Sikh separatist leader in British Columbia, New Delhi has doubled down on a long-standing grievance: Canada is home to dangerous anti-India extremists that Ottawa refuses to curb. It is a controversial contention, and one that Ottawa has never endorsed.
Nijjar was training recruits on machine guns in Mission BC.
