India said on Tuesday it had expelled a Canadian diplomat with five days’ notice to leave the country, just hours after Ottawa expelled the South Asian nation’s top intelligence agent and accused it of a role in the murder of a Sikh separatist leader.

    Indian here, this is stupidity and reflect Modi’s ongoing silent sweep to extreme nationalism. He’s learned fhat the other extremist nationalists we’re all about the leaders pomp and ceremony.

    So somebody murders this Nijjar fella somewhere up near Vancouver. RCMP must have got some clear evidence it was an assassination by India.
