Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with Italy’s PM, Giorgia Meloni, on March 2 in Toronto where the pair agreed on “enhanced cooperation” between the two countries. A scheduled reception later in the day for the two G7 leaders was cancelled as pro-Palestinian protesters blocked entrances to the event venue.

During a brief media conference before their meeting earlier in the day, the two leaders spoke about the pertinent issues, including artificial intelligence, migration, labour, and manufacturing.
