Union Minister Piyush Goyal emphasized the strengthening ties between India and Canada during his visit, where he announced a goal to triple bilateral trade to $50 billion by 2030. Speaking alongside Canada's Minister of International Trade, Maninder Sidhu, Goyal noted the rapid progress in their partnership, which has gained momentum following Prime Minister Mark Carney's visit to India earlier this year. He highlighted the ambitious target of increasing trade from the current $17 billion level, stating that it is achievable due to the strong commitment from both nations. Goyal's delegation includes over 112 Indian businesses, marking the largest business group to travel from India to Canada. This visit coincides with ongoing negotiations for a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), seen as crucial for enhancing economic relations. Goyal underscored the importance of this relationship for mutual prosperity and global economic contributions.
