It does not matter if a person is Canadian citizen or not, belongs to whatever group/ideology/activism, or categorized as a criminal by another country
An assassination of a individual on Canadian soil by members associated with the government of India, ie. sanctioned by them, is a violation of sovereignty. There is no "buts" about this.
A lot of people are asking "oh but was he a citizen? did he become that from loopholes? was he involved in illegal activities or designated as a criminal by India?" and so on. That is not the issue at all
I am trusting that any Canadian PM wouldn't just come out and directly blame the government openly if CSIS didn't have concrete evidence.
What is unfortunate is that Canadian is not a military power, because if it was, countries like India who openly prosecute so many people within their country, would think twice before sending agents to Canada and violate their sovereignty.
