Also in today’s edition: Carbon credits, Celine Dion and a bellwether by-election
Good morning. A year after Hardeep Singh Nijjar ’s death, mysteries remain about how he really lived – more on that below, along with a bellwether by-election and Celine Dion’s heart-wrenching doc. But first:visa services for Canadians. Now, we’re at something of a stalemate: New Delhi demands evidence of its involvement, and Ottawa wants co-operation with the evidence that’s been shared.
But who, exactly, was the man at the centre of this crisis? My colleagues Nancy Macdonald and Greg Mercer spent months sorting rhetoric from reality to write thisIn the end, you sorted through thousands of court records, conducted dozens of interviews, analyzed evidence and even geolocated photos for this investigation. But where did you start?My job was to speak with people close to Nijjar. For months, I was spending more time in Surrey than in Richmond, where I live.
As I read, I kept thinking that everyone is searching for some agreement about what Nijjar was up to – but we can’t even settle on his age. What were some of the hurdles for you?There’s a lot of disinformation around Nijjar and Sikh separatists coming out of India, and much of that is widely repeated by the Indian media. Even the evidence filed in Indian criminal cases linked to Khalistan is complicated by political motives and feature wide-ranging allegations, often without compelling proof.
