Prime Minister, Mark Carney, met with the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, on the margins of the G20 Leaders’ Summit in Johannesburg, South Africa.
The prime ministers welcomed the positive momentum in bilateral relations since their last meeting in June at the G7 Summit in Kananaskis and the new roadmap for bilateral engagement announced by their foreign ministers in October.
Building on the 7th Ministerial Dialogue on Trade and Investment held in New Delhi, India, on November 13, 2025, the leaders agreed to formally launch negotiations for an ambitious Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) encompassing goods, services, investment, agriculture and agri-food, digital trade, mobility, and sustainable development.
The leaders expressed confidence that the CEPA will serve as a powerful economic anchor and help more than double two-way trade to $70 billion by 2030.
