So the timeline is that he knew about interference way back in 2017 and did nothing. As it goes on to say, “Mr. Sign continues his foreign interference unabated”
Sorry, but he has to take some blame for this, as he should.

No. Global Affairs, which briefed Trudeau and informed him CSIS was taking a softer approach on their recommendation, did not want it to affect his trip to India from the perspective of global relations, so they did not inform officials
in the Indian government of CSIS’ concerns
on that trip.
Why make something up that isn’t in the article? It says it, you quoted it.
At no point does the article mention Trudeau not wanting it to impact his trip to India and at no point does it even suggest Trudeau wanted or would even have reason to assume “nothing” was being done, the article says the opposite: that he was briefed on the fact that things were, in fact, being done. And then things weren’t done.

This all occurred well before the eventual murder and if the government/national security had acted more appropriately that outcome may not have occurred.

No, I’m not missing the point, you guys aren’t reading the article. Two different government agencies wanted an alternate approach due to the impact the original approach would have on how they do their jobs (including Global Affairs ability to manage diplomatic relations).
Nobody dismissed the threat, nobody handcuffed CSIS into doing nothing. The government agencies CSIS consulted with wanted an approach that wouldn’t compromise their work, and instead CSIS did nothing.
But seriously, do you honestly think that was just… it? Nothing happened between 2017 and now? Nothing was done, CSIS continued to do nothing (despite having enough knowledge to accurately warn Hardeep of his death)?
