Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney began his visit to India on Friday, aiming to revive bilateral relations and double trade between the two countries. The trip comes amid trade and diplomatic tensions with the United States. Carney is scheduled to address business leaders in Mumbai and meet Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi to discuss new partnerships in trade, energy, technology, artificial intelligence, human resources, culture, and defense.
Relations between Ottawa and New Delhi deteriorated sharply in 2023 after Canada alleged India’s involvement in the killing of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, an accusation India denied. Both countries expelled senior diplomats in 2024, but ties began improving after Carney took office in March 2025, with ambassadors reinstated. Canadian Foreign Minister Anita Anand said transnational repression issues would be discussed during the visit.
Carney has set a goal to raise bilateral trade to 51 billion dollars by 2030. Following his India trip, he will visit Australia and Japan as part of a broader strategy to reduce dependence on the United States and strengthen trade with Europe and Asia.
