Send us Fan MailDescriptionPrime Minister Mark Carney visits India this week, the first Canadian leader to do so since relations collapsed in 2023. The ten-day Indo-Pacific tour includes stops in Australia and Japan, with artificial intelligence, clean energy, and critical minerals at the center of discussions. At stake: a $70 billion trade deal with India, the operationalization of the ACITI trilateral tech partnership, and Carney's broader strategy to double Canada's non-U.S. trade within a decade. This episode examines what the diplomatic reset means, what remains unresolved, and why the bet Carney is making matters.Sources:https://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/news-releases/2026/02/23/prime-minister-carney-diversify-canadas-trade-attract-new-investmenthttps://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/carney-india-as-both-countries-look-to-deepen-economic-ties-9.7042985https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/carney-ai-partnership-india-australia-9.6989126https://globalnews.ca/news/11539634/canada-india-trade-deal-revival-mark-carney-narendra-modi/https://thediplomat.com/2025/11/a-triangle-across-oceans-australia-canada-and-indias-minilateral-experiment/https://www.nationalobserver.com/2026/02/20/opinion/carney-india-modi-relationsTagsAI North Brief, Canadian AI, AI Policy, Mark Carney, India, Narendra Modi, CEPA, Trade Diversification, ACITI, Indo-Pacific, Critical Minerals, Clean Energy, Trilateral PartnershipChapter Markers00:00 Intro 00:25 The India Leg 02:15 The Trilateral 03:45 The Bigger Picture 05:00 The Unresolved Question 06:30 Outro
