Who is Mark Carney?

As the head of the Bank of Canada and, in 2013, as the first non-citizen to lead the Bank of England since its founding in 1694, Carney handled crises. After Canada recovered from the 2008 financial crisis more quickly than many other nations, his appointment received bipartisan acclaim in the United Kingdom.

What Carney Said On India-Canada Ties

In his campaign for the top job, Carney claimed that if elected, he would “rebuild” ties with India. When asked about the tariffs that US President Donald Trump has put on Canada, Carney allegedly responded, “There are opportunities to rebuild the relationship with India and what Canada will be looking to do is diversify our trading relationships with like-minded countries.”
