We can work together, it is a great respect for me to be here.
Relationship between India-Canada in recent times
Relations between India and Canada have not been normal in recent times. Especially on 18 September 2023, when the then Prime Minister of Canada Justin Trudeau accused India of involvement in the murder of pro -Khalistan Hardeep Singh Nijjar, tension between the two countries reached the peak. Due to this dispute, India expelled six Canadian officials. Canada also abolished the diplomatic exemption of officers including the Indian High Commissioner. Until October 2024, no High Commissioner was deployed in both countries. This development created an atmosphere of instability and mistrust in the decades -old relationship.
