Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made waves this week when he announced that Canada has intelligence linking the government of India to the murder of a prominent B.C. Sikh leader on Canadian soil.
Trudeau said that Canadian security agencies have been pursuing what he calls credible allegations of the link, but the Indian government has so far called the claims absurd.
National Post political reporter Ryan Tumilty joins the show to discuss the killing, why the victim was potentially a political target, and why this is the latest in a long string of tensions between Canada and India.
