Market Chatter: Harper 'Intervening' in Indian Nuclear Talks, Cameco Says

By Midnight Trader,  November 05, 2012, 04:12:35 PM EDT

Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper is "personally intervening" in inter-government talks to help the country sell nuclear fuel and equipment to India, uranium producer Cameco Corp.'s (CCO.TO) chief executive officer said, Bloomberg reported.

"For Canada to fully participate with India, we need that bilateral agreement," Tim Gitzel said today in a telephone interview from Cameco's headquarters in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. "We are very appreciative that the PM is personally intervening to help move that forward."

Rudy Husny, a spokesman for Canadian Trade Minister Ed Fast, didn't immediately respond to a request for comment outside of normal business hours in India, where he's traveling with the government delegation. Harper is on a six-day trip and will meet Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh tomorrow.
