India and Canada to Anchor Trade in Energy, Critical Minerals

India’s expected growth in energy demand is a “great opportunity” for the North American nation, which holds large supplies of oil, gas and critical minerals, Energy and Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson told Bloomberg Television at the India Energy Week in Goa on Wednesday.
