Yeah I guess Hindu vs Sikh isn't exactly sectarian although its close/similar. I think this is inevitable when you have completely unfettered India immigration into Canada. I would support the Sikhs and believe they do deserve their own country + they are based, this instance crosses a line where the state of India is (supposedly) culpable in a killing on our soil.
Tbh it's pretty sad just how many Indian people were let into Canada. I generally have no issues with them and they are nice people but it's gone off the rails - in most of Canada Indian people now appear to be the majority. Even my staunchly left wing pro-Hillary mother laments the fact that it's just Indian people everywhere.
And the Sikh is a Canadian citizen. The problem with unfettered immigration is this. You don't import people in because you want to fix your demographics. You let them come in because they have the right tools or expertise that you lack. Or they are filthy rich that can provide 200 to 300 decent Jobs for local Canadians on a fairly long term basis.
EU is even worst. That being said, this might drive a wedge between the United States and Canada , because Foreign Policy and common international interest that is shared by both the US and Canada takes priority.
But on the other hand , there might be more such unhappy incidents that happen in future and the Sikhs are going to fight back and promote independence and self determination away from India aka China / Tibet , China Taiwan sort of thing. there is about 23 to 24 million Silkhs in India and they are mostly in Punjab.
So it really depends on how the " West " reacts. Any wrong move will be viewed as hypocritical and any moves that will appease the Indians for example will mean more Sikhs being Epstiened.

In the last 2 years basically every service job in my city has become filled by an Indian employee, the McDonald's up the road is all Indian and even has Indian music as the soundtrack. Probably every second person I see on the street is Indian. I have no problem with them but it is huge change in such a short period of time, before this it would be rare to see an Indian here at all.
Your national dish will be Curry soon , like Britain.
