TL;DR Summary

India has expelled a top Canadian diplomat in response to Canadian accusations that India may have been involved in the killing of a Sikh separatist leader in Vancouver. India dismissed the allegations as absurd and cited growing concern over Canadian diplomats' interference in internal matters and involvement in anti-India activities. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stated that Canada is not looking to provoke or escalate tensions and wants to work with India to clarify the situation. While Canada has yet to provide evidence of Indian involvement, if true, it would mark a significant shift for India. The dueling expulsions have escalated tensions between the two countries, with Trudeau having frosty encounters with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the recent G20 meeting.
