Trade Minister Maninder Sidhu says trade talks with India won’t resume just yet, as the two countries conduct “scoping” discussions to find areas of cooperation.
Sidhu, who visited India this week, said New Delhi and Ottawa are working to advance new joint ventures in many sectors from AI to critical minerals, but are still in preliminary discussions about formally restarting trade talks.
