Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will appear as a guest on CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Monday.

Trudeau’s official itinerary says the interview will be shot during his trip to New York, where he is meeting with leaders ahead of the 78th gathering of the United Nations General Assembly.

Trudeau says UN members must fight threats of climate change and inflation together

During remarks to the United Nations General Assembly, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called on members to collaborate in order to find solutions to issues that transcend national borders — like inequality, climate change and inflation.

A schedule posted by Paramount, which owns CBS, says RuPaul Charles, the host of the show RuPaul’s Drag Race, will also be a guest on The Late Show on Monday. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert airs in Canada on Global.

Trudeau made an appearance on the Canadian version of the drag queen competition series last year.

The prime minister will attend the assembly in New York City until Wednesday morning. Later that day, his government is expected to face a Conservative non-confidence motion in the House of Commons — the first such move since the NDP ended its supply and confidence deal with the Liberals.
