Trudeau says sharing Nijjar news was meant to deter India

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he chose to reveal a possible link between the Indian government and the killing of a Canadian to 'put a chill' on India amid concerns in the Sikh community over safety. Trudeau says in a year-end interview with The Canadian Press that the sombre message he delivered in the House of Commons was intended as an extra 'level of deterrence' to keep Canadians safer.
