Trudeau absolutely needed to say something to Modi given the intelligence he pretty obviously had from Canadian Intelligence Services. But I think there was a smarter way to handle this on his part, especially after asking the Five Eyes to stand united on this and getting denied by the US and UK at least, based on what's been leaked. When he found out he wasn't getting any support from the big hitters on the international stage, I think he'd be better served to have private discussions with Modi about the incident and settling it behind closed doors vs. calling India out alone like this in the media. India is going to be a power at some point and the reason why smart people from the US and UK opted to defer when asked. Just my opinion...
