- On June 17, 2025, during the G7 summit in Alberta, Canadian leader Mark Carney and India’s Narendra Modi met to agree on appointing new high commissioners and reinstating regular diplomatic services between their countries.
- This meeting took place after Canada expelled six Indian diplomats last October, accusing them of involvement in a covert effort targeting individuals in Canada.
- The dispute centered on the 2023 murder of Canadian Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia, with Canadian officials alleging Indian government involvement, which India denied.
- Carney described inviting Modi to the G7 summit as "a great honor," and their joint statement emphasized "mutual respect, the rule of law, and a commitment to sovereignty and territorial integrity."
- The agreement to name new high commissioners and resume normal diplomatic services signals an effort to mend ties despite ongoing concerns about foreign interference from India, as warned by Canadian intelligence.
