The relations between India and Canada have reached a new level with state governments now engaging in trade and investment opportunities.
India's Acting Consul General in Toronto, Kapidhwaja Pratap Singh, said that the recent trade mission by the Canadian Hindu Chamber of Commerce (CHCC) has created a positive impact on bilateral ties.
The CHCC mission was the first by a Canadian trade delegation to India after ties renewed over the last nine months.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi have stressed on trade and investment ties between the two countries.
The launch of fresh negotiations towards a comprehensive economic partnership agreement (CEPA) aims to expand bilateral trade to CA$70 billion by 2030.
The CHCC plans to host its signature event, Invest India, Invest Canada, thrice this year to enhance awareness about trade opportunities between the two countries.
The Chamber also plans to establish 50 hospitality units in Ayodhya, which can create a model for global Hindus to invest in religious tourism, community connection, and cultural heritage.
