Justin Trudeau's next visit in Windsor may come sooner than expected.

On Thursday, the Prime Minister kicked off a two-day stop in Windsor, telling those in attendance at a Liberal party fundraiser he looks forward to "coming back an awful lot over the coming 12 months."

"This is a big week for Canada but really it's a big week for Windsor," said Trudeau, less than a week after Canada reached a new trade deal with the United States and Mexico.

"There's still parts of the country where I think we need a better job of listening, of drawing together and involving you in the solutions and one of those areas definitely is the tip of southwestern Ontario particularly the Windsor region."

He said part of his Thanksgiving will be spent "celebrating new ties with the Gordie Howe International Bridge."

Trudeau's stay continues Friday when he attends a "community celebration"for the Gordie Howe bridge and visits the Chrysler assembly plant.
