The two leaders also spoke over phone to discuss the Paris Climate Agreement ahead of Modi's visit to the US last month.

Trudeau assumed office as the second youngest Prime Minister of Canada in November 2015.

Canada is home to around 1.2 million persons of Indian origin.

 

Earlier on Friday, Modi met Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on the sidelines of the Summit.
