Toronto Raptors head coach Nick Nurse says a meeting is in the works with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Nurse says he hasn't heard from the U.S. White House about a congratulatory meeting, but the team has been in contact with Ottawa.

"Definitely the Trudeau meeting, because they have been asking me about scheduling it," Nurse told Toronto radio station Sportsnet 590 The Fan on Wednesday.It was not clear exactly who would attend the meeting or when it would happen."We are here. Let's go see Trudeau up in Ottawa."He said the enthusiasm of the fans, especially the young people and the diversity of the crowd, was moving.

"What struck me the most was 'Gee, everybody from the age of six to 18 is here,"' he said. "And such diversity. It was really something to see a sea of young people who were so excited and showing such nationalistic pride." During the victory parade Trudeau addressed the celebrating crowd saying the Raptors brought all of Canada together.On Friday, he tweeted "And that's how we do it in the North" moments after the Raptors defeated the Golden State Warriors in Game 6 of the NBA Finals, becoming the new champions.

The prime minister also tweeted a photo of himself with two of his children and the family dog watching the final game at home.Related Stories

Chef Catered meal vs Loser Trumps Fast food meals.. No White House Visit needed

Raptors should visit WhiteHouse (like all NBA champs) & parliamenthill. When in ottawacity they should visit cafreeland or Mark Carney (from bankofengland), who are rumoured to replace JustinTrudeau soon due to more scandals looming. liberal_party cdnpoli ResignTrudeau

now that's something to look forward to.... let me pencil that into my calendar... NOT! its a photo-op nothing more stick with the real fans not the fake one

That's ok. Better, actually.

Trudeau will show up in hockey gear, he’s that dumb.

I’m surprised it’s not a combined meeting with both since JT needs trumps approval for everything now

How boring for them

- Hey Raptors, don’t ruin a good thing by meeting with JustinTrudeau the clown, he will not do anything to elevate your success.

Why would we need to even contemplate a White House visit for a Canadian Team? I don’t think the Raptors want to eat McYucks at the White House with Donald Trump while watching him continuously embarrassing himself. Does Trump he even know what a basketball is?
