March 2, 2026 • Google News World

Mark Carney, the former Governor of the Bank of Canada, has embarked on a diplomatic tour to strengthen ties with several countries. His first stop is India, where he met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

According to reports, this visit marks an effort by Canada to reset its relations with India. The trip coincides with ongoing trade uncertainty between the US and India.

Carney’s visit also aims to build on Canada’s reputation as a ‘middle power’ in international relations. He is scheduled to meet with leaders in Australia and Japan during his tour.

In recent years, Canada has sought to improve its relationships with countries like India, which have been critical of Western nations. The country’s efforts to strengthen ties with these nations are part of a broader strategy to diversify its diplomatic relationships.

Carney’s visit to India is seen as an important step in this effort. His meeting with Modi marks the first time a Canadian leader has visited the country since 2018.
