Trudeau arrives in Washington for Three Amigos, meetings with U.S. officials

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau arrives in Washington, D.C., today for two days of meetings with U.S. officials and tomorrow's Three Amigos summit.

The busy tour marks Trudeau's first visit to the U.S. capital since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The prime minister, who is being accompanied by Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, arrives at Andrews Air Force Base this morning before participating in a question-answer session hosted by the Wilson Centre.

He will then spend most of the rest of the day meeting members of Congress before attending a gala this evening hosted by the Canadian American Business Council.

Tomorrow, Trudeau is scheduled to appear in the morning at a local middle school alongside Vice President Kamala Harris.
