The bonds connecting India with Canada, historically anchored in common democratic traditions plus interplurality alongside vigorous economic exchanges, are experiencing stress which may considerably damage their relations. The two countries generally maintained good diplomatic relations as well as close social contacts. Recently, however, this process has been marred by heightened diplomatic tensions that could potentially affect the trading system in the future. The falling out with Canada has seen tit-for-tat acts. As such, after accusing India of alleged state-sponsored terrorism, Canadian PM Justin Trudeau’s move resulted in expelling an Indian diplomat from Canada in India’s retaliation. A Canadian leader alleged that Indian government had a hand in killing Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar which was strongly denied by India. Experts argue that tension may escalate beyond diplomacy, affecting trade and bilateral economic cooperation. The situation is compounded by further issues such as accusations and counter-accusations with its undertones of mistrust and doubt. International observers will keep an eye on probable de-escalation efforts and subsequent productive discussions for the sake of broader interests of both India and Canada as the scenario keeps developing.

Till date Canadian PM could not display any proof for his allegation. Justin Trudeau is habitual to apologies for his mistakes, hence he don't care before doing mistakes but for political benefit, he is spoiling Indo-Canada relations. Relations will take shape & gets rebuild after election once Justin Trudeau will be out of power.

Assassination is the greatest crime of all. This is not acceptable independent of the country, its culture, and all. Even though there is doubt on any of the parties, the two countries and their relations are involved. Given the value of trust as a moral value, it seems that the relationship between the two countries will degrade in these years.

@sharayukasar It will get repaired once opposition party will be in Power.

@PrashantWaghulade Yes, I guess Congress will put more emphasis on improving relations

India and Canada bilateral ties are underpinned by shared values of democracy, pluralism, expanding economic engagement, regular high level interactions and long-standing people to people ties. The tense diplomatic relations between india and canada are likely to impact trade and economic ties are driven by commercial considerations, according to experts. In a tit for tat, India expels canadian diplomat, rejects justin trudeau's charges as absurd and motivated. Canada says indian government agents could be linked to sikh leader Hardeep singh nijjar's murder.

@AravindKumar

Canada is also home to a 1.7-million-strong Indians and both countries have strong bilateral ties from decades now. Though this may be the lowest level to which this relationship has sunk. It won't be easy to return to the old normal anytime soon howerver, Canada & India will continue to engage their diplomats to resolve the current issues. This may resolve soon.
