President Joe Biden held first his first bilateral meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday 23 Feb 2021, with the two leaders convening virtually due to the current pandemic.
After the virtual meeting, Mr. Biden and Trudeau made a statement expressing the commitment between the two nations. The two world leaders unveiled a "U.S.-Canada Partnership roadmap" detailing that commitment on issues like combatting current pandemic, tackling the climate crisis, bolstering continental defense and strengthening global alliances.
During their meeting, Trudeau told Mr. Biden that "U.S. leadership has been sorely missed over the past year" — a not-so-cryptical nod to former President Trump's relationship with Canada and the western world.
