Prime Minister Trudeau's State Visit Is Today

Following their private meeting in the Oval Office, Obama and Trudeau held a joint press conference in the Rose Garden 
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie are in Washington DC for a state visit, and it may be a toss up who is more excited about that happening.

Despite Canada being our northern neighbor and our number one trading partner, this was the first visit by a Canadian Prime Minister to the US since 1997.


President Barack Obama, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, First Lady Michelle Obama and Sophie Gregoire Trudeau pose from a balcony as they take part in an arrival ceremony for the Trudeaus at the White House on Thursday 

They were welcomed with a pomp and circumstance filled State Welcoming Ceremony on the White house South Lawn this morning and later tonight will enjoy the first state dinner held for a Canadian leader in 20 years.
