Hey there, time traveller!

OTTAWA – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has arrived in Lima, Peru, where he will attend the APEC summit before heading to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for the G20.
Both summits aim to improve the multilateral institutions that have drawn skepticism from U.S. president-elect Donald Trump.
In Peru, Trudeau will take part in meetings of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation group, which largely involves resolving barriers to trade and forming better links across the Pacific Rim.
On Sunday, the prime minister will leave for Brazil for the G20 summit, for discussions ranging from the war in Ukraine to artificial intelligence and ending hunger.
Both summits will involve meeting with other heads of government in formal meetings as well as side conversations.
Analysts say it will be key for Canada to try to retain strong ties with numerous countries, as the looming Trump administration plans to raise tariffs and could disrupt global trade flows.
Trudeau is travelling with his daughter, Ella-Grace, 15.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 14, 2024.
Note to readers: This is a corrected story. A previous version said Trudeau will be flying to Brazil on Saturday.
