Canada is strengthening ties with India and China amid escalating US-Trump tariff wars, with Foreign Minister Anita Anand traveling to Delhi, Mumbai, Singapore, and Hangzhou this week. Anand met PM Modi Monday, emphasizing stable relationships with major economic players are crucial in current geopolitics. Under PM Mark Carney, Canada has normalized India relations after 2023's Trudeau-era diplomatic standstill, appointing new ambassadors and establishing cross-border crime intelligence frameworks. A joint statement with Jaishankar announced ministerial-level trade discussions and resuming the Canada-India CEO Forum in early 2026.
