He’s expected to speak at 11:15 a.m. at a remote news conference and take questions from the media.
Trudeau revealed last Thursday that he was going into isolation for five days after finding out the previous evening he had been in contact with someone who tested positive.
He told The Canadian Press on Friday that it was because one of his three children had tested positive for COVID-19.
