Of course we're alone. What other G7 country is going to expend the political capital to jump in an defend our action? From what is publicly available, we didn't brief our allies (Five Eyes, G7, NATO, whoever)beforehand on what we knew (generally) and what we were going to do so I'm not sure what their incentive would be to step in and make our day suck less.
This accusation should not have come from the PMO. I'm not exactly sure what he was expecting to accomplish. This should have been done at the global affairs ministry level, maybe with the public safety minister in tow. That would have left the PMs some talking space. Assuming the allegation is true, and assuming that approval of the extra-judicial act would have come from the highest level, what Trudeau is saying to Modi is 'you did this'. Where the heck do you go from there? Either that or shut-up until the arrests are made/warrants issued.
