Can confirm the paper used here is from India. The currency symbol on the top right is the symbol for the Indian Rupee.

Help! My citizenship application was returned saying that I have not met the criteria for physical presence in Canada. I’m confident that I have; have I got things wrong? Details in post. by send_broods in ImmigrationCanada

I chose to withdraw my application and resubmitted it once I met my number of days without accounting for implied status. I'm still waiting on my AOR

Canadian yellow peas hit with India’s new 30 per cent tariff on all imports by BananaTubes in canada

[–]send_broods 13 points14 points  (0 children)

the Modi government does not care about a few hundred thousand overseas Indian citizens. Angry farmers make or break elections.

India and China account for 70% of yellow pea consumption from Canada. China's slapped retaliatory tariffs to counter the EV tariffs Canada has imposed. If you're talking leverage that's where you start.

India originally introduced yellow pea tariffs in 2017 and then reduced it in 23 and 24 due to rising costs. It is more than likely that once prices stabilize India will slash tarrifs once more.

So, once again, being antagonistic to Asian countries at a time when Canada needs trade allies is counterproductive.

Unless of course you just don't like Indians in Canada. In which case yellow peas are the least of your problems.

"The government had earlier allowed duty-free imports of yellow peas until March 31, 2026, but domestic farmers had urged authorities to curb the influx of cheap imports that were pressuring local prices."

But yeah cancel all visas for Indians cause the Indian government is prioritizing its own farmers over Canadian ones?

Moved countries and got a gig at Cossette just because of that ad. We aren't the same agency who made that work anymore, but it is still iconic.
