Union Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal on Saturday said he is leading a delegation of 150 Indian business leaders to Canada, with engagements in Ottawa on May 25 and a two-day programme in Toronto from May 26 to 27.
“The visit carries forward the mandate given by the Prime Ministers of India and Canada during PM Mark Carney’s visit to India in March 2026, and seeks to impart renewed momentum to bilateral engagement across trade, investment, energy, technology and people-to-people ties,” said the official release.
A central focus of the visit is the advancement of India-Canada Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) negotiations. The Terms of Reference were signed during Carney’s visit to India.
