No surprise but article is confirming it was the US that found/supplied the Five Eyes intel to Canada.

American spy agencies provided information to Ottawa, Ontario, after the killing of a Sikh separatist leader, but Canada developed the most definitive intelligence that led it to accuse India of orchestrating the plot, according to Western allied officials.

In the aftermath of the killing, U.S. intelligence agencies offered their Canadian counterparts context that helped Canada conclude that India had been involved. Yet what appears to be the “smoking gun,” intercepted communications of Indian diplomats in Canada indicating involvement in the plot, was gathered by Canadian officials, allied officials said.

The United States routinely, and automatically, shares huge amounts of intercepted communications with its closest intelligence partners, including Canada. But the contextual information about the killing was shared deliberately as part of a package of various intelligence streams.

India is asking for the evidence for the accusation. Canada should provide some level of evidence (e.g. names & transcripts of those diplomats discussing it).
