He attended the event on Saturday after a gap of seven years, media reports said.
The PM tweeted: "From Vancouver to Edmonton to Toronto, I have fond memories of attending Vaisakhi celebrations. Today, we were back in Toronto for this year’s Khalsa Day parade – celebrating with friends old and new. Happy Vaisakhi!"
According to reports, he was flanked by Cabinet colleagues, including Harjit Sajjan and Omar Alghabra as well as Liberal Party MPs from the Greater Toronto Area or GTA.
He had last attended the event in 2017.
