Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Tuesday, September 22, 2026, in New York that trade negotiations with India are making “good progress” and that the two countries aim to conclude them by the Group of 20 (G20) summit, scheduled for December 14-15, 2026 in Miami, according to the The Hindu. Carney said Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has confirmed plans to visit Canada around that time, though no date has been set. Carney has said he wants to double Canada’s non-US trade over the next decade, and the talks with India are part of that push to reduce dependence on Washington amid deteriorating relations under Donald Trump’s administration, according to ANI. Negotiations were formally relaunched in March 2026, after the 2023 diplomatic rupture over the killing of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia.
