Canada’s Canadian Security Intelligence Service 2025 report warns that Khalistani extremist elements continue to pose a security threat, despite no attacks last year. It also alleges foreign interference by countries including India, China and Russia. However, recent statements by authorities suggest no current evidence directly links India to violent activities on Canadian soil.

Canada’s intelligence agency has flagged ongoing concerns over Khalistani extremism within the country, while also naming India among several nations accused of attempting to influence Canadian affairs, according to its latest annual assessment.
