Canada calls for Trump to be banned from G7 summit

Singh made assessments about Canada's presidency of the G7 Summit this year.

Citing "threats to democracy, sovereignty and global stability", Singh demanded that Trump be barred from attending the G7 Summit.

"Why would we invite someone who threatens our democracy and sovereignty?" Singh said.

Noting that Trump's actions and policies were damaging international organizations, Singh said the G7 Summit was "an opportunity to work together with allies to counter Trump's threats to the world."

US President Trump said on February 14 that Russia should be readmitted to the G7, which consists of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK and the US.
