    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told reporters on Tuesday he was not seeking to escalate the rift with India.

    Tensions heightened between the two countries, which have historically had close ties, after Mr Trudeau said in September that India may have been behind the 18 June killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

    He was a Canadian citizen shot dead in his vehicle by two masked gunmen outside a Sikh temple in British Columbia.

    Mr Trudeau told the Canadian parliament the country’s intelligence agencies were investigating whether “agents of the government of India” were involved in the killing of Nijjar.

    On 21 September, India stopped issuing visas to Canadian citizens citing “security threats” at its missions in Canada.

    “In light of the current environment where tensions have heightened, we are taking action to ensure the safety of our diplomats,” a statement said.

      Mr Trudeau told the Canadian parliament the country’s intelligence agencies were investigating whether “agents of the government of India” were involved in the killing of Nijjar.

      I thought he already claimed he had credible evidence, from one of their 5 eyes cohorts, that India was behind it.
