Canada worked closely with the US on intelligence suggesting Indian agents could be involved in Hardeep Singh Nijjar's murder in British Columbia, a senior Canadian official said. This issue has soured India-Canada ties, with both countries pausing trade talks and Canada postponing an October trade mission over the killing. PM Justin Trudeau announced Canada is probing the credible allegations against Indian operatives. The evidence will be shared later, the source said. Canada's intelligence coordination with the US supposedly lends external validation linking Nijjar's high-profile murder on Canadian soil with Indian operatives.
