The Hindu
India aims to rebuild ties with Canada post-Trudeau era, focusing on trust and sensitivity, amid past diplomatic strains.
India on Friday (March 21, 2025) said it hopes to rebuild ties with Canada based on "mutual trust and sensitivity", blaming the downturn in the relations to the "licence" that was given to the "extremist and secessionist elements" in that country.
New Delhi's comments came days after Mark Carney, an economist and political newcomer, took charge as Canada's new Prime Minister following the exit of Justin Trudeau from the top office.

"The downturn in India-Canada relations was caused by the license that was given to the extremist and secessionist elements in that country," External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said.
He was responding to a question at his weekly media briefing on the current status of India-Canada bilateral ties.
"Our hope is that we can rebuild our ties based on mutual trust and sensitivity," he said.
