Carney's India Visit: A Critical Step to Reset Indo-Canada Ties?

  • Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is expected to visit India in the first week of March, aiming to reset strained Indo-Canada relations.
  • The visit is anticipated to include the signing of agreements on uranium, energy, critical minerals, and artificial intelligence.
  • Diplomatic engagement has increased, with PM Narendra Modi attending the G7 summit at Carney's invitation and Canadian ministers visiting India.
  • Carney seeks to diversify Canada's global partnerships beyond the US and repair ties after the 2023 Nijjar rift, caused by former PM Trudeau's false allegations.
  • Formal negotiations for a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement are expected to restart in March, alongside potential agreements on nuclear energy, oil and gas, and a C$2.8 billion uranium supply deal.

Why It Matters: Mark Carney's upcoming visit to India is crucial for resetting Indo-Canada relations and expanding cooperation.
