Late Tuesday, the U.S. vehemently denied the idea that it has been reluctant to speak publicly on Canada's behalf amid allegations by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that the Indian government participated in the extrajudicial killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil.

This was after a report in the Washington Post said Ottawa had tried and failed for weeks to get its allies to publicly condemn the murder.

Having to assassinate people in other countries because you have not been able to quell minority unrest in your own country does not exactly put you in a position to criticize they way other countries manage there own affairs.

If Canada believes India was complicit in this crime, a good way to show that they can handle their shit is to to gather the evidence, present it to the global community, and hold India accountable.
