Canada-India relations strain over killing of Sikh separatist leader

LONDON — The diplomatic breach between Canada and India over the killing of a Sikh separatist leader near Vancouver has widened as both countries expelled one of the other’s diplomats and India suspended visa processing for Canadian citizens.

Ties between the two countries, which are close security and trade partners and U.S. allies, strained after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Monday that investigators were actively probing “credible allegations” about the potential involvement of Indian government agents in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

India’s Ministry of External Affairs quickly rejected Trudeau’s allegations, calling them “absurd” and accusing Canada of sheltering “terrorists and extremists” who “continue to threaten India’s sovereignty and territorial integrity,” according to a statement.

Nijjar, who lived in Canada for over 20 years and advocated for Sikh independence while running a plumbing business, was gunned down on June 18 in front of a temple in Surrey, near Vancouver. In 2020, the Indian government had classified him as a terrorist belonging to a banned militant group, accusations that Nijjar and his followers always denied.

Canada is home to the largest Sikh population outside of India. According to Statistics Canada, the North American nation is home to 1.35 million Indians who make up around three percent of Canada’s population.

In a notice posted on Thursday on BLS International, India’s visa application center in Canada, the center announced it is suspending visa services for Canadians “until further” notice due to “operational reasons, with effect from 21 September 2023.”

India’s Ministry of External Affairs also issued an advisory for Indian Nationals and students in Canada, urging them to “exercise utmost caution” due to “growing anti-India activities and politically-condoned hate crimes and criminal violence in Canada.”

ABC News has reached out to India’s Ministry of External Affairs for comment.

“We are not looking to provoke or cause problems, but we are unequivocal about the rule of law and unequivocal about protecting Canadians and standing up for our values,” Trudeau told reporters at the United Nations on Thursday.

“That is why we call upon the government of India to work with us to establish processes, to uncover the truth of the matter and allow justice and accountability to be served,” he said.

Trudeau was in contact with U.S. President Joe Biden’s administration about the findings on which he based his allegations before he made them public, a U.S. official told AP on condition of anonymity.

In response to the row, U.S. top national security adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters that there are “no exceptions” for actions like this.

“Regardless of the country, we will stand up and defend our basic principles and we will also consult closely with allies like Canada as they pursue their law enforcement and diplomatic process,” Sullivan said.

Canada-India relations have grown significantly in recent years, with the Canadian government announcing that bilateral trade in goods reached nearly 12 billion Canadian dollars in 2023 – an increase of 57 percent from the previous year.

Now, pressure is mounting for the Canadian government to share more of the evidence for its “credible allegations,” especially as some of the evidence reportedly came from Five Eyes allies, an intelligence-sharing network that includes the U.S., U.K., Canada, Australia and New Zealand, the CBC reported this week, citing Canadian government sources.

It’s unclear whether the Nijjar question was already brought up at the recent G20 summit in New Delhi. A few days later, Canada announced it was cancelling a trade mission to India planned for the fall.

Published

on

The two-day event from March 25-27 will feature 40+ space law experts in 15+ sessions on the Queen Mary

Long Beach, California, United States, 11th Mar 2025 — Space Beach Law Lab returns to the Queen Mary March 25 to 27 for their second annual conference on space law, organizers announced. Expected to bring together over 300 attendees from around the globe, the event will focus on pivotal legal topics concerning the space industry, from international treaties and frameworks, launch politics, orbital debris (aka “space junk”), militarization, and the emerging sector of space commerce. More than 40 speakers will present over 15 sessions.

“Many people hear ‘space law,’ and their first reaction is often confusion or disbelief that it’s a real thing.’ said Drea Bernardi, producer and founding partner of the conference. “But space technology affects aspects of everyday life down here on Earth, whether its satellite technology or national security. As space continues to grow into a trillion-dollar industry—space is definitely going to need more lawyers! We created Space Beach Law Lab to bring together this community of cutting edge legal minds and industry pioneers. This is where the economy of the future is being built, right here in Space Beach, California, and this conference is the place to hash out the big ideas.”

Journalist and Academy Award nominated screenwriter David Sirota (Don’t Look Up) will present the keynote speech on “Making The Space Case: Politics, Pop culture and why Americans remain so ambivalent about exploring the cosmos.” The next two days will feature sessions like “Enforcing IP rights in collaborative, multinational missions,” “From Ice to Orbit: Can Antarctica’s Legal Framework Guide the Future of Space?,” and “Hacked from Orbit: The New Frontier of Space Cybersecurity.” Other sessions will address government contracts, financing and investment, orbital debris, and space warfare.

Presenters are from global legal firms with established space practices and top industry corporations. Sponsors include Fenwick, Orrington, Buchalter, Akin, Dickinson Wright, Wiley, and Fluet.

Select sessions will offer Mandatory Continuing Legal Education (MCLE) credits.

The Best Investment Strategy for the Crypto Market in 2025: How Staking Can Increase the Value of Your Assets?

Published

on

OnStaking stands out as the best crypto platform to reward investors through Crypto staking. Founded in 2015, OnStaking has a strong track record with over 250,000 registered users and over $130 million in total investment. This platform simplifies Staking Crypto with an automated, secure, and user-friendly system.

Many crypto enthusiasts are wondering what’s happening to the cryptocurrency market as it continues to grapple with a sluggish pace. This has left many investors looking for ways to grow their wealth. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other major assets are all in red, with market volatility dampening the speculative fervor of previous bull runs.

Analysts point to macroeconomic uncertainty, regulatory pressure, and lack of new catalysts as the reasons for this stagnation. In this subdued market, Staking Crypto has emerged as a strategy that not only preserves your capital but also generates passive income. Unlike trading which thrives on market swings, Crypto staking is a steady way to grow your assets, making it the best investment strategy for the current performances.

Profitable Staking Plans to Maximize Your Assets In 2025

In a market where growth feels impossible, OnStaking stands out as the best crypto platform to reward investors through Crypto staking. Founded in 2015, OnStaking has a strong track record with over 250,000 registered users and over $130 million in total investment. This platform simplifies Staking Crypto with an automated, secure, and user-friendly system. Whether you’re staking Ethereum, Solana, or lesser-known assets, OnStaking makes your investments work for you.

But in a crowded crypto space where all Crypto staking platforms are aiming for the top, what makes OnStaking unique? Simply put; It’s a combination of high rewards, a $100 trial bonus for new users, 5% lifetime referral commissions, and bounty programs among others. Below is a snapshot of some staking plans available on OnStaking, from short-term trials to long-term high yield plans:

 

 

OnStaking’s Key Features to Boost Your Crypto Staking Returns

OnStaking is designed with advanced features to combat the unsettled crypto market with a proactive reward-driven strategy. The mobile app further adds convenience, so you can manage your stakes on the go with AI-powered precision. Here’s what makes OnStaking a top choice:

Automated Liquidity Staking

OnStaking has automated systems that optimize your staking process, so you don’t have to monitor constantly. This feature ensures your assets are traded with precision, maximizing profits without human intervention.

Unbeatable Security

OnStaking has established regulations, trusted partners, and advanced protocols to safeguard your assets. Your funds are protected from market fluctuations and technical risks, so you can have peace of mind while staking.

Multiple Staking Pools

OnStaking supports over 70 blockchain networks and has Crypto staking pools for assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cardano, Solana, and many other popular assets. This means you can diversify your portfolio and tap into multiple reward streams with OnStaking.

Generous Incentives

New users get a $100 trial bonus to try risk-free, the affiliate program gives a 5% lifetime commission on referrals, and the bounty program rewards community engagement with bonuses from $1 to $100 across social media platforms like YouTube, X, and Medium.

Instant Profitability

Unlike traditional investments, OnStaking gives you instant earnings. Rewards are settled every 24 hours without delay.

Innovative Expertise

A global team of DevOps engineers, R&D specialists, and blockchain experts ensures the platform’s reliability and performance.

Smart Investment Move in a Stagnant Market

The good part about Crypto staking is its simplicity and robustness. In a market where price pumps are scarce, staking uses the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mechanism to generate rewards by securing blockchain networks. Unlike mining which requires robust hardware and energy costs, staking only requires you to lock your assets in a wallet. This process not only supports network decentralization but also pays you in extra tokens—turning your dormant holdings into a productive asset.

OnStaking makes it even more profitable with its Crypto staking pools, which pools resources from multiple investors to increase reward chances. This collective approach reduces individual risk while increasing returns, perfect for a market with slow momentum. With zero contract risk and consensus rewards delivered directly from the network, OnStaking ensures your earnings are both secure and predictable.

Imagine by staking $50,000 in Ethereum on OnStaking for 40 days. You’d earn $1,185 daily, plus $1,050 in referral rewards if you invite others, totaling $47,400. That’s a powerful antidote to a slow-moving market, proof that Crypto staking platforms like OnStaking can thrive where trading fails. When you add the bounty program—where sharing a YouTube video about your experience can earn you up to $100—the earning potential becomes even more rewarding.

Conclusion

As the crypto market continues sending mixed signals, now is th time to move from passive holding to active growth through Crypto staking. With its $100 trial bonus, 5% referral commissions, and multiple Crypto staking pools, OnStaking allows you to grow your assets regardless of the market conditions. So don’t let the unpredictable market dictate your wealth creation journey. Sign up with OnStaking today with just an email, username, password, and an optional referral code, and watch your wealth grow.
