Premier Li and Canadian counterpart show personal warmth as they seek to cement ties

History repeated itself this week for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who first became part of China-Canada diplomacy at the age of 11 when he joined his father, then-prime minister Pierre Trudeau, on a visit to China in 1983.

This time, it was Justin Trudeau's 8-year-old son Xavier who took his place in history alongside his father.
