According to Montreal Mayor Gérald Tremblay we could see Canada be added to the Formula One calendar next season. The Mayor of Montreal has held talks with Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone in London on Thursday.

In London Mayor Tremblay was joined by Quebec Economic Development Minister Raymond Bachand and federal Minister of International Trade Michael Fortier. After a meeting of two and half hours there was still no agreement but Tremblay was optimistic. "We've had a constructive meeting. We have a better understanding of the issues. We still have a lot of work to do, to evaluate all the options, but it is still possible to hold the Grand Prix in Montreal in 2009 and in subsequent years," Tremblay said after the meeting.
