Agreed with everything except for this wording:

> The Canadian government guarantees this and the Indian government interfered with this sovereignty as alleged.

I would have said instead: "The Canadian government guarantees this and the Indian government is alleged to have interfered with its sovereignty."

Where does Canada stand with regards for her southern neighbor and his proclivity for extrajudicial killings and violations of sovereignty in the name fighting a War on Terror?

Contemptibly silent. I prefer partial silence to complete silence though.
