The president caught wind of Trudeau’s remarks from his plane and started tweeting.
An article in Time magazine at the time called it “a piece of political theatre staged not so much to solve international problems as to create an atmosphere conducive to seeking their solution.” Bush had just been re-elected as president and was on the eve of his second term when he met with then-prime minister Paul Martin in Halifax in December 2004.
The U.S. embassy in Canada’s website lists dozens of presidential visits dating back to 1923, when Warren G. Harding attended a reception in Vancouver — though the U.S. only recognized Canada as “an independent state with autonomous control over its foreign relations” in February 1927. According to the Roosevelt Papers, the then-president suggested the location for the August 1943 meeting because “Quebec offered the advantages of a delightful climate and appropriate and comfortable quarters at the historic Citadel and the Chateau Frontenac.”
In more recent history, the celebrity status of Barack Obama left a lasting impact on more than one downtown Ottawa pastry shop.
