India, Canada to hold trade talks in February

"I think there is will at both the sides to conclude the proposed pact," Beck told reporters on the sidelines of an event organised by the Indo-Canada Chamber of Commerce here.

"Canada wants an ambitious Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement with India. The seventh round of the negotiation is going to take place in February in New Delhi."

Beck said the deal would give a boost to the flow of trade and investment between the two countries.

"This is something which will also help Indian investments in Canada," he said.
