Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his government will "explore next steps" if Toronto city council chooses to make a bid to host World Expo 2025. On Monday, Tory confirmed that the executive committee will consider a report on the possibility of a 2025 Expo bid on Tuesday. "Should the city of Toronto choose to submit a bid to host an exposition ... our government is prepared to explore next steps," Trudeau wrote. The official bid letter will have to be submitted by Nov. 1, 2016, according to Wong-Tam. Canada has only held the World Expo officially once before in Montreal in 1967.
