Sources tell CBC News Indian officials have not denied the existence of the intelligence in private

The Canadian government has amassed both human and signals intelligence in a months-long investigation of a Sikh activist’s death that has inflamed relations with India, sources tell CBC News.

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

The intelligence did not come solely from Canada. Some was provided by an unnamed ally in the Five Eyes intelligence alliance.

    Considering that Canada didn’t achieve full sovereignty distinct from the UK until the early 80s, I wouldn’t be shocked if the Brits had helped them out on this one. They’re pretty damn good at intel, too.

          Well I’m not sure what really can. What the hell did the Indian government think they were doing?

          It’s Russia levels of shittiness.

            They thought the West wouldn’t do shit, like we didn’t when Putin and Saudi Arabia assassinated people or when Turkey beat up people in DC.

            They’re right.

              It depends entirely on who’s in power. Trump and the GOP love Russia and Saudi Arabia. Trump personally wanted to get into business with both of them. Thats the primary reason nothing happened.

      all five spy partners are pretty cooperative when it comes to sharing data. they all want the others to provide to them–so they’re all gonna give, too.

        Just give enough to get them by. They don’t casually share the entire stuff with their partners.
