Queen Elizabeth grants audience to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he’s invited provincial and territorial leaders to Ottawa to discuss Canada’s climate change plans later this month before an worldwide climate summit gets underway in Paris.

According to one group’s spokesperson, as published by local website, Interaksyon.com, “with PM Trudeau at the helm, we expect the Canadian government to turn around the previous stonewalling by the (Stephen) Harper government, to make things right and just, and take back the waste that Canada exported to the Philippines”.

Indian High Commissioner to Canada, Vishnu Prakash and Chandra Kant Arya, Canadian Member of Parliament welcomed the Prime Minister and addressed the gathering.

Trudeau has signalled that he wants more greenhouse gas reduction, but that the provinces should use their preferred approaches rather than face an imposed national strategy. “High Commissioner Vishnu Prakash congratulated the Prime Minister on his election, observing that he was honouring 1.2 billion Indians and the large Indo-Canadian community by celebrating Diwali with them”, the High Commission of India in Ottawa said in a statement.

“Diwali highlights our shared values of respect and inclusion, and our commitment to freedom and equality”.

There have been other reports of developed countries illegally dumping waste overseas – primarily e-waste – including a case that led to sentencing of a former Highlands Ranch, CO electronics recycling executive.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is going to England for a taste of royal life on November 25.

Trudeau has included four Indo-Canadians in his cabinet. He has also accepted the invitation of Modi and details for his visit to India are being worked out, sources said.
