CALGARY — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is in Calgary for a second day, and he has a pair of Stampede pancake breakfasts on his plate.

His first scheduled stop is an event with the Ismaili Muslim community.

Later in the morning, Trudeau is set to attend a Stampede breakfast hosted by George Chahal, the Liberal MP for Calgary Skyview.

Trudeau visited the Stampede grounds on Friday, greeting festival-goers and stopping at some local stalls.

That came after a meeting with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, in which the two discussed emission-reduction plans and the strike by B.C. port workers.
