US President Joe Biden has spoken to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in his first bilateral meeting with a foreign leader since taking office.
The two leaders highlighted mutual policy priorities around climate change and China.
They vowed to align climate goals to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.
And Mr. Biden said the US would help Canada secure the release of two Canadians held by Beijing, saying they were not bartering chips.
Canada is often the destination chosen for a US president’s first foreign trip, but Covid-19 scuppered Mr. Biden’s plans. Instead, the meeting was held remotely.
