I don't regard myself as an expert on Canadian-Indian diplomatic relations. I think it was very clear in the Indo-Pacific strategy that Global Affairs produced that there was a lot of hope invested in being able to develop closer ties between Canada and India, both on the economic front and on the security front, and hope that India would serve as a counterweight to China. I think economic hopes remain, and understandably so, so that we can continue to be a strong economic trading partner with India.
I think hopes around India being willing to perform, if you like, in the western camp in terms of geopolitical tensions in the Indo-Pacific region are diminishing rapidly, and I think the idea that a country like Canada can engage in national security co-operation on various fronts with a country like India has been exploded entirely.
