G20 has been serving as a harbinger of peace and cordiality between India and Canada. The Prime Minister of Canada, Mark Carney, will meet the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, after the closing of the G20 summit in Johannesburg on its last day, Nov. 23.

This will be the second meeting between the two prime ministers. They first met at the G7 Leaders’ Summit in Alberta, Canada, in June 2025.

Though India has already extended a formal invitation to Mark Carney to visit India for the AI summit in New Delhi in Feb. 2025, a word of confirmation is still awaited.

It will be their second meeting before Mark Carney visits India.

Long before the meeting, a joint statement was issued saying Australia, Canada, and India today agreed to enter into a new trilateral technology and innovation partnership: the Australia-Canada-India Technology and Innovation (ACITI) Partnership.

The three sides agreed to strengthen their ambition in cooperation on critical and emerging technologies to complement existing bilateral initiatives. 

The initiative will draw on the natural strengths of the three countries and have an emphasis on green energy innovation and building resilient supply chains, including in critical minerals.

It will deepen their respective ambition and strategic collaboration towards net zero and drive further diversification of supply chains towards a secure, sustainable, and resilient future. The partnership will also examine the development and mass adoption of artificial intelligence to improve the lives of our citizens. 

They agreed that officials should convene in the first quarter of 2026 to take the initiative forward.
