Canada's new foreign affairs minister will be among the federal delegation joining Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for the North American Leaders' Summit. Trudeau is scheduled to meet face-to-face with U.S. President Joe Biden and Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
Four cabinet ministers - two of them in brand-new portfolios - will accompany Prime Minister Justin Trudeau when he takes part in Thursday's North American Leaders' Summit at the White House.
Newly appointed Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly will travel to D.C. after meeting Marcelo Ebrard, the secretary of foreign affairs for the United Mexican States, for the first time in Mexico City.
Federal officials say Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, International Trade Minister Mary Ng and Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino will also join Trudeau at the summit, which includes U.S. President Joe Biden and Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
It will be the first time the three leaders have met together in person since Canada hosted the last trilateral summit in 2016.
