This is some prime journalism here, no facts or evidence, just "we think so because..."
I mean that's just some peak journalism right there.

This article is funny
But none have stepped up to condemn India for its alleged involvement in the June slaying on Canadian soil of a Sikh separatist, Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Why?
later,
Canada has yet to provide any evidence of India’s involvement in the killing. But . . .
How many guesses do we get for the question?
It's also wrong. We know the five eyes have been involved in providing intelligence on the incident. Canada hasn't publicly released evidence, but to therefore conclude there isn't any or it hasn't been shared privately is a pretty big leap.
I have no doubts the five eyes believe the accusations and have / are mounting their own evidence, but I also don't expect world governments to start condeming or sanctioning India based on hidden evidence because that doesn't sound like a very diplomatic way to procede as a third party country to this fiasco.
Edit: woke up today to articles about indian comms obtained to canada and Biden talking to Modi personally, so it seems we're already developing a little more past the info we had.
I totally agree with you. The article is just shitty (which seems to be a pattern with coverage of this story).
I mean, this whole situation sucks, but from an international politics standpoint it makes sense why they wouldn't take a side until we're absolutely sure rather than just pretty sure that India's government was involved in the killing.
There's no way Canada would make it public without proof. The US, very foolishly thinks it can make Modi's India its stooge in its fight with China just like it did to Pakistan in its war against Russia & Afghanistan. Looks what happened to that alliance.
Modi is a dictator guided solely by personal ambition. The US govt forgets that even though China has invaded India and routinely threatens India's territorial sovereignity, Modi has allowed it to become India'a 2nd largest trade partner., to benefit his oligarchs., political donors, and himself. He will not side with the US against China, but will try to milk US's need for allies to prop himself while doing Chinas bidding.
The US is trying to create another Pakistan by appeasing Modi, which is why they're ignoring his ongoing genocide of Muslims & Christians in India, and now his assassination of Sikhs abroad.
I mostly agree, but India is never going to do China's bidding. India is playing both sides and getting as much as possible from each. The only difference is China understands this and will make it's successes look like India is siding with China. USA doesn't seem to understand this for some reason and well...
