In March 2014, the G7 declared that a meaningful discussion was currently not possible with Russia in the context of the G8.[3] Since then, meetings have continued within the G7 process.
Agenda and preparation
At the G7 Summit Canada intends to "showcase both its domestic and international priorities: to strengthen the middle class, advance gender equity, fight climate change, and promote respect for diversity and inclusion."[1]
In June 2017, Peter Boehm was appointed as Deputy Minister for the G7 Summit and Personal Representative of the Prime Minister[4] after serving as the Canadian G7 Sherpa since 2012.[5]
In December 2017, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau unveiled the summit logo and announced five key themes that Canada will advance once it assumes the Presidency of the G7 on January 1, 2018.[6]
