image for Canada has Indian diplomats' communications in bombshell murder probe: sources

That intelligence includes communications involving Indian officials themselves, including Indian diplomats present in Canada, say Canadian government sources.

Canada's National Security and Intelligence Adviser Jody Thomas was in India over four days in mid-August, then again for five days this month.

That last visit overlapped with a tense meeting between Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Canadian sources say that, when pressed behind closed doors, no Indian official has denied the bombshell allegation at the core of this case — that there is evidence to suggest Indian government involvement in the assassination of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil.

The Indian government has fumed at Canada for — in its view — sheltering Sikh separatists, including Nijjar, whom it called a terrorist.

The growing feud already has resulted in the expulsion of diplomats from both Canada and India.

Canada is weighing retaliation but has taken no decision yet, said government sources in Ottawa. »

A government shutdown would mean thousands of government employees furloughed, which could lead to processing delays for programs Americans rely on like Social Security and SNAP. »

Despite Huffman’s position on the measure, so far he has not signaled plans to push for a repeal if voters opt to legalize.

Meanwhile, other lawmakers say the possibility of a successful repeal effort is unlikely considering that legalization enjoys strong Democratic support and even some GOP support in the legislature.

“There are not a majority of legislators in both chambers that would be pro-repeal,” Rep. Ron Ferguson (R) told The Dispatch. »
