Summary[edit]

Description

Earlier today, I met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. We discussed a range of serious issues including opportunities for greater economic partnerships, improving trade between our two countries, and regional security issues. I expressed to him how important a productive and positive relationship with India would be to me should I be elected Prime Minister in 2019.

In recent years, India has seen unprecedented growth and has established itself as a rising power in the Indo-Pacific region. I believe there is tremendous potential for significantly expanded trade between Canada and India that would bring benefits for people in both countries.

I also expressed my desire to have Canada become a supplier of safe and secure energy for India. I told Prime Minister Modi that a Conservative government would remove the roadblocks that currently prevent pipeline expansion that would allow Canadian oil and gas to reach new markets in the Indo-Pacific region. This would allow India to meet its growing demands with responsible and reliable energy.

I’m here to connect with Indian leaders and to deepen the bonds through which our united countries can work together. Yesterday, I met with Foreign Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, and the Minister of State for Housing and Urban Affairs Hardeep Singh Puri. I made clear to them that as Prime Minister I would ensure that India will be an indispensable priority in all aspects of Canadian foreign policy.

I look forward to the remainder of my mission in India and laying the foundation for a strong and mutually beneficial relationship in the future. Plus tôt aujourd’hui, j’ai rencontré le premier ministre indien Narendra Modi. Nous avons discuté d’un éventail de questions d’importance, notamment sur les possibilités d’un plus grand partenariat économique, sur l’amélioration du commerce entre nos deux pays et sur des questions de sécurité régionale. Je lui ai exprimé l’importance à mes yeux d’une relation productive et positive avec l’Inde si j’étais élu premier ministre en 2019.

Au cours des dernières années, l’Inde a vécu une croissance sans précédent et s’est établie comme une puissance émergente dans la région indo-pacifique. Je crois qu’il y a un potentiel exceptionnel de développement considérable du commerce entre le Canada et l’Inde qui profiterait aux populations de nos deux pays.

J’ai aussi exprimé mon désir que le Canada devienne un fournisseur d’énergie sûre pour l’Inde. J’ai dit au premier ministre Modi qu’un gouvernement conservateur retirerait les obstacles empêchant l’expansion du pipeline qui permettrait au pétrole et au gaz canadien pour atteindre les nouveaux marchés dans la région indo-pacifique. Ceci permettrait à l’Inde de répondre à la demande croissance avec une source d’énergie responsable et fiable.

Je suis ici pour rencontrer les dirigeants de l’Inde et pour approfondir les liens qui permettent à nos pays unis de travailler ensemble. Hier, j’ai rencontré la ministre des Affaires étrangères Sushma Swaraj, et le ministre d’État responsable de l’Habitation et des Affaires urbaine Hardeep Singh Puri. Je leur ai clairement indiqué que je garantirais comme premier ministre que l’Inde occuperait une place prioritaire indispensable dans tous les aspects de la politique étrangère du Canada.

Je suis impatient de poursuivre cette mission en Inde et d’établir les fondations d’une solide relation qui sera mutuellement bénéfique pour l’avenir.
