Mr. Pettigrew also said Canada is exploring the possibility of nuclear power reactor sales to India.
The announcement was made at a joint news conference with Indian Foreign Minister K. Natwar Singh, and follows by two months a similar move by the United States.
Canada had imposed the moratorium on nuclear co-operation in 1998 when India tested nuclear warheads.
Mr. Axworthy said yesterday that Ottawa's decision is a "sad mistake" that undermines international efforts to halt the spread of nuclear weapons.

Canada is in 2005 on record as having supported nuclear co-operation with Communist China and barely democratic and barely democratic India--two countries with over 1 billion people who have every intention of at least trying to expand, become more powerful, and colonize parts of the world.

<br />
As Canada continues to accept most of its immigrants these days from China and India and like nations we are not only sending our world-leading nuclear tech to them (which China has alreay stolen--make no mistake about it) but we are about to let even more than the already 300,000 mostly Asians we already let into Canada today.<br />

After turning India into a nuclear power, Paul Martin has the nerve to suggest that Canada "dare not" possess nuclear weapons for fear of "proliferation". Apparently only communist, totalitarian countries with ambitions of global domination deserve our sympathy.<br />
