Premier Moe meets with Indian Minister to discuss trade issues

Saskatchewan's premier attended the G7 Foreign Ministers' meeting in Ontario this week, where he met with India's Minister of External Affairs.

Scott Moe says the bilateral meeting focused on steps to remove tariffs on yellow peas and areas of mutual interest, including potash, uranium, and agri-food products.

He says the province will keep engaging at the highest levels of the Indian government to promote Saskatchewan and Canada as a secure and sustainable source of pulse crops and other food products.

According to a news release, since 2020, the Saskatchewan-India trade and investment office has been supporting the province's engagement across India.

Last February, the province led a mission to India to attend the Pulses Conclave, and helped Saskatchewan-based companies connect with prospective Indian partners and investors.
