Justin Trudeau got reacquainted with Queen Elizabeth Wednesday, this time as Canada’s prime minister rather than the son of one.
When she welcomed him at Buckingham Palace, as they shook hands she opened with, ”Very nice to see you again. In rather different circumstances, isn’t it?”
Trudeau replied, ”I will say, you were much taller than me the last time we met,” as the Queen laughed.
”Yes, it’s extraordinary to think of, isn’t it?” she answered before sitting down for a private conversation.
Trudeau then delivered a speech at Canada House in Trafalgar Square, showcasing the refugee resettlement plan as an example of the country’s unique diversity to the world.
Later, he met with his British counterpart David Cameron at 10 Downing Street.
