The recent findings of Canada's Foreign Interference Commission have unequivocally confirmed the pervasive and corrosive threats posed by the Government of India to Canadian electoral processes, public institutions, and the Sikh community in particular. Despite the validation of the community's lived experiences over four decades however, the limited scope of the Hogue commission's terms of reference leave many questions unanswered. Sikhs across the country are calling for a fresh inquiry to examine the circumstances leading to Bhai Hardeep Singh Nijar's assassination and any other violent activity linked to agents of the Government of India.
