NYT writes ties were 'largely frozen’ after Trudeau’s accusations. But thaw began after a meeting between Modi & Carney last June as Canada looks for markets beyond ‘suddenly unreliable US’.
Carney is 1st Canadian PM in 8 years to have a bilateral India visit. Ties nosedived almost 3 years ago after Canada's allegations that New Delhi was of 'interfering' in Ottawa's affairs.
Canada’s latest stand is a sharp shift from the position of the previous Trudeau govt, which had raised the allegations and triggered a diplomatic chill in ties between the two.
Officials in Canada move to revoke citizenship of 26/11 accused Rana as PM Carney prepares to visit India. Also, global media reports on what Trump's new tariffs mean for India.

Trump has ushered in the age of humiliation. His method is to push around America’s friends rudely and publicly. He knows none of them can afford to fight back.
India blundered. Canadians cooled down on their allegations and accusations only because President Trump kicked them hard on their shins. But Trump will not remain the President forever – after three years, someone else will be in that chair. US-Canada relations will be reset and the Canadians will go back to being parasites – profiting disproportionately from the US under favourable and pretty much one-sided trade deals and also enjoying the protection of the US military umbrella for free. They will have no need for India or China and, therefore, show their true colours once again. They will pick up from where they have left off and again start supporting the Khalistani secessionists and glorify these terrorists as ‘activists’.
