Joe Biden and his wife Jill Biden spent Thursday afternoon with the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie Gregoire-Trudeau. The President and First Lady arrived in Canada’s capital, Ottawa, Ontario for the official visit the day before March 23 for a 48-hour trip. The foursome were seen seated in the House of Commons, which is a house within Canada’s Parliament earlier today, followed by an ‘intimate gathering’ at Justin and Sophie’s private residence, Rideau Cottage. The two couples posed for photos outside before heading out to dinner Thursday night.
Jill and Sophie looked stylish in their looks for the public appearance: Jill, 71, opted for a long-sleeved royal blue shift dress with black pumps. Meanwhile, Sophie represented Canada in a long-sleeved red maxi jumpsuit with a feather design, as well as a pair of turquoise earrings. The 47-year-old kept her hair curly.
Justin shared photos from the night on his own Instagram account, including his son xavier15, Ella Grace14 and adorable 9 year old girl Hadrian. “Welcome, @POTUS Biden – to Canada, Ottawa and home. We are happy to have you here,” he captioned the photos.
Joe and Justin also looked dapper, with the president in a navy suit and white shirt, and Justin in a slightly more casual gray option with a sky blue button down and no tie. The visit between the two marks the first presidential visit since he was sworn in after winning the 2020 election against the former president donald trump. Of course, there have been other world events – including queen elizabethJoe and Justin’s funeral in London last September.
The pair spent most of their afternoon on Parliament Hill in meetings while Sophie showed Jill around Ottawa – including a visit to the 135-year-old Rideau Curling Club. During the visit, they also met with about 20 players – all high school age – to talk about sports and mental health.
Also on the program, a stop at National Gallery of Canada to see the latest exhibitions as well as other works of art that stay at home in Ottawa.
