CSIS says India is a continued foreign interference threat as Canada renews diplomacy

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 18 Jun, 2025 11:39 AM
  • CSIS says India is a continued foreign interference threat as Canada renews diplomacy

The latest annual report of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service says Indian officials and their proxy agents in Canada, engage in a range of activities that seek to influence Canadian communities and politicians.

The report comes as Canada renews diplomatic ties with India after Prime Minister Mark Carney met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the G7 in Kananaskis, Alta. on Tuesday. 

Last year both former prime minister Justin Trudeau and the RCMP linked agents of the Indian government to the 2023 murder of Canadian Sikh-activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. 

That murder happened two years ago today.

Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree says that Canada has had "difficult conversations" with the Indian government and that will continue. 

Anandasangaree says that the government condemns any attempt at foreign interference in Canada, and the RCMP's investigation into Nijjar's killing is still ongoing.
