  Saskatchewan Minister of Trade and Export Development Warren Kaeding and Minister of Advanced Education Ken Cheveldayoff are leading a trade and academic mission to India from October 10 to 16, 2026, to advance bilateral partnerships in food security, critical minerals, energy, and higher education. The ministers will participate in the federal Team Canada Trade Mission programming in Mumbai on October 14, alongside representatives from the University of Saskatchewan. In 2025, Saskatchewan exports to India reached $827 million—primarily driven by potash, lentils, and peas—with trade increasing by 155 per cent year-to-date in 2026, building on past successes such as Cameco's $2.6 billion agreement with India's Department of Atomic Energy.

  Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe dismissed U.S. President Donald Trump's stated plan to purchase potash from Belarus as unrealistic and unethical, labelling the product "blood potash" that supports Russian aggression in Ukraine. Following Trump's initial social media post regarding a potential discount trade deal with Belarus, the U.S. president subsequently clarified at the United Nations General Assembly that the United States will continue sourcing its potash from Canada. In 2024, nearly a third of the world's potash came from Canada, with all active production originating from 11 mines in Saskatchewan.

Canada currently supplies 79 per cent of U.S. potash imports, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, while Belarus accounts for three per cent. Trade talks between Canada and the United States collapsed previously after Ottawa walked away from negotiating terms demanded by Washington, prompting the U.S. to impose retaliatory tariffs and import restrictions against Canada.
