"US and Canada Share Intelligence on Killing of Sikh Leader, India-Canada Stalemate Continues"

American spy agencies shared intelligence with Canada regarding the killing of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar, providing additional context to support Canada's conclusion that Indian "agents" carried out the assassination. The US did not have prior knowledge of the killing and did not share any definitive evidence, but helped Canada with their investigation. The killing has sparked a diplomatic crisis between Canada and India, with both countries expelling diplomats and suspending visa services. Nijjar, a Canadian citizen, advocated for the creation of Khalistan, an independent nation for India's Sikh population.
