U.S. President Joe Biden arrived on Parliament Hill saying that he and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau "have a lot to talk about," but that it's great to be in Canada.
Biden, offering brief remarks ahead of a bilateral meeting with Trudeau in his office, said America is lucky to have Canada to the north at a time with so many geopolitical challenges.
He said while the two nations disagree occasionally, there is no difference when it comes to the democratic values they share.

Rolling up on to Parliament Hill in "The Beast" nearly an hour behind schedule, Biden was met by a backdrop of American flags lining the street and extremely tight security.
