Singh says after learning more information, he can "confirm" that "clear evidence" of India's involvement exists.

Federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says he received an intelligence briefing about allegations that the Indian government could be behind the killing of a Sikh leader in British Columbia.

Singh says after learning more information, he can "confirm" that "clear evidence" of India's involvement exists.

He received the briefing days after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told the House of Commons about "credible allegations," which India has denied amid escalating tensions between the two countries.

Singh told reporters today that he was able to request the briefing because of the security clearance he obtained in order to review foreign-interference materials prepared by former special rapporteur David Johnston.

He says Trudeau told him and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre about the allegations before sharing them publicly.

He got a briefing from Trudeau's national security adviser, Jody Thomas, three days later.

G7 Allies to Release 100 Million Barrels of Oil to Curb Rising Prices

Canada and its G7 allies have agreed to release 100 million barrels of oil from emergency reserves to help ease surging global oil prices. A significant portion of the supply will be diesel, as prices for the fuel have reached record levels in Canada, the U.S. and other countries. Canada’s average diesel price stood at around $2.63 per litre on Thursday, while prices in major cities such as Vancouver were close to $2.71 per litre. The higher costs have placed additional financial pressure on truck drivers and farmers. Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Jap
