Not officially... not yet.
There are a lot of rumours Trudeau is planning one for this fall, but it has not been announced.
Trudeau does appear to be going around the country and making major financing announcements for various programs (mass transit, green energy etc). These likely are intended to sway votes his way in a forthcoming election - but they can't make these announcements, or spend the people's money, if the election is announced as parliament stops till the election occurs.
Trudeau's workaround seems to be to do the financing announcements first, then presumably call an election soon.
Of course - he could always change his mind about the election call, but I expect there will be one in the fall.
