Fourteen bullets fired at a home near Victoria. An Edmonton building torched by arsonists carrying a red jerrycan. A 39-year-old found dead in a Winnipeg duplex

The crimes are among several across Canada that were allegedly part of an Indian government campaign against activists and opponents of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

This kind of stuff has been an open secret for a while. The Modi government has a reputation for targeting Khalistan activists, and these incidents fit the pattern. Canada’s decision to publicly call it out just exposes what’s already been happening, and it’s about time the truth is addressed head-on, even if it means straining diplomatic relations.
