Mr. Modi also said that he was looking forward to working with Prime Minister Carney to build a future defined by trust, growth, innovation and shared prosperity for the people of both nations.

He said this in response to a video posted by Mr. Carney on X, highlighting some key moments of his visit where the Canadian Prime Minister had said that his visit to India was not just a renewal of the Canada-India partnership but an expansion with new ambition and focus, between two confident countries charting their own course for the future.

“You are absolutely right, Prime Minister Carney. Your visit has built a strong foundation for a truly renewed partnership. I look forward to working together with you to build a future defined by trust, growth, innovation and shared prosperity for the people of our nations,” Mr. Modi wrote on X.

The Canadian Prime Minister was in India from February 27 to March 2, during which India and Canada sealed key pacts on supplies of Uranium and critical minerals and agreed to conclude a comprehensive economic partnership agreement soon.

In their dialogues, the two Prime Ministers also pledged to ramp up cooperation in defence, critical technologies, small and modular nuclear reactors, education and renewable energy.

Mr. Carney was accompanied by a high-level delegation. He also interacted with top Indian and Canadian corporate leaders, financial experts and innovators.

Canada and India are close to finalizing an export agreement in a deal valued at about $2.8 billion, the Globe and Mail reported on Monday (November 24, 2025), citing people familiar with the matter.

The deal for Canada to ship uranium to India would run for 10 years if finalized, the report said, adding that uranium would be supplied by Canada’s Cameco Corp. The deal could be part of a broader nuclear cooperation effort between the two countries, the report said.

The Centre, the Union Ministry of Commerce and Industry, the Canadian government and Canada’s Trade Ministry did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment. Reuters could not immediately verify the report.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a discussion on the sidelines of the G-20 summit in Johannesburg, South Africa, on Sunday.

The Centre said on Sunday that the two countries agreed to restart stalled talks for a new trade deal, after discussions had paused following a diplomatic spat two years ago.

“The leaders agreed to begin negotiations on a high-ambition Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), aimed at doubling bilateral trade to USD 50 billion by 2030,” the statement from India’s Prime Minister’s Office said.
