Prime Minister Mark Carney is defending his decision to invite Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the G7 Summit in Alberta later this month, as security officials investigate links between the Indian government and murder of a Canadian two years ago. Carney says that it makes sense to have India at the G7 table as one of the world's largest economies. The prime minister says the invitation was extended with a commitment to continued law enforcement discussions. Former prime minister Justin Trudeau said in 2023 that agents of the Indian government were linked to the murder of Sikh separatis

Prime Minister Mark Carney's government is granting itself new powers to quickly push ahead major projects the federal cabinet deems to be in the national interest. Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Dominic LeBlanc tabled legislation in the House of Commons today which would give Ottawa the authority to draw up a list of large projects it wants to prioritize and expedite their federal approval.
