Tensions between Canada and India are escalating!





Tensions between Canada and India are escalating after the G20 Summit earlier in September. The office of Canadian Trade Minister Mary Ng said she would postpone her trade mission to India that was scheduled for October. 

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was snubbed by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the formal bilateral meetings during the G20 summit, only holding shorter informal meetings on the sidelines. 

Indian officials also told reports negotiations over a trade deal were on hold due to objections over “political developments in Canada.” Modi has criticized Canada’s handling of recent Sikh protests. The Indian government said Modi complained about “anti-India activities of extremist elements in Canada." #CGTNAmerica
