"India's rapidly growing economy and its commitment to expand its investment regime will provide significant opportunities for investors in a variety of sectors, including infrastructure, education, life sciences, science and technology and natural resources among many others," said the Prime Minister. "In making India a priority market, our government’s commitment is translating into collaboration and progress in a number of important areas."
Prime Minister Harper and India’s Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh witnessed the signing of two agreements by Stockwell Day, Minister of International Trade and Minister for the Asia-Pacific Gateway, and Anand Sharma, India’s Minister of Commerce and Industry.
"Canadian companies have an array of products and services to offer India’s growing market of nearly 1.2 billion people," said Prime Minister Harper. "Economic partnership agreements in key sectors of interest will help expand trade, open doors for Canadian exporters, encourage economic growth and create jobs in both our countries."
