Trade in focus, India, Canada push to up ties
India and Canada are working to strengthen their economic ties and boost trade between the two nations, according to recent statements. Canada's Foreign Minister Anita Anand emphasized efforts to build "renewed partnerships" with major economies such as India and China. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar stated that the relationship between the two countries is being prepared to reach "a higher level".
Anand highlighted Canada's focus on diversifying its trade and pursuing $1 trillion in investments by 2030, particularly with partners in the Indo-Pacific, Gulf region, and Latin America. Both nations are aiming to take their relationship to new heights, in the wake of improved ties following a major reset in diplomatic relations. They are also preparing for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's anticipated visit to Canada in December.
