Canadian PM to visit India

After laying out the red carpet for the Australian prime minister, New Delhi is preparing to host Canadian PM Stephen Harper next week.
Travelling through four cities — Agra, Chandigarh, Bangalore and Delhi — between November 3-9, Harper, whose conservative government has taken a definite turn towards India, plans to use his second visit to India to reset the agenda between the two countries.
Canada is emerging as one of India’s bigger sources for energy and minerals. Private Indian firms are being invited to invest in the energy sector in Canada, with the country using its established infrastructure, political stability and low risk as selling points.
While trade is growing at a steady clip, Canada is also an attractive destination for at least 23,000 Indian students.
