Narendra Modi is the first Indian prime minister in over 42 years to visit Canada, which has a sizeable Indian community.
Apart from interactions with Indians - a public welcome in Toronto is billed to be on the lines of his famous Madison Square address in New York last year - PM Modi's three-day visit will aim at securing a deal for the import of uranium and improving visa facilities for Indo-Canadians.
Marking the first standalone bilateral visit in 42 years, Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived today in Canada where the focus will be on setting a "trajectory" in ties through cooperation in energy, including civil nuclear, and attracting trade and technology for India's development.
A significant aspect of the three-day visit will be Modi's meeting with top officials of Canada's Pension Fund with focus on inviting them to India.
I leave Germany with great satisfaction. This visit will strengthen the India-Germany ties. Thank you Germany!
