Canada–Grenada relations


Canada – Grenada relations are bilateral relations between Canada and Grenada. Canada recognized Grenada and also formally established diplomatic relations on 7 February 1974, as the same day as Grenada got independence from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Both countries are members of the Commonwealth of Nations, and they share the same head of state and monarch as Commonwealth realms.

History

Early bilateral interactions occurred as both countries shared their colonial relationship as former parts of the British Empire.

Trade
