Justin Trudeau meets the Queen
Justin Trudeau was at Buckingham Palace today to meet the Queen.
She greeted the new Canadian prime minister by saying it was "nice to see you again... but under different circumstances."
"I will say, you were much taller than me the last time we met," Trudeau told the Queen, who now towers over the monarch he first met as a child travelling with his father and prime minister at the time, Pierre Trudeau.
"Well, this is extraordinary to think of, isn't it," the Queen replied with a laugh.
The audience at the palace is his first stop on a week-long international trip that includes a midday speech to guests at Canada House, followed by an afternoon meeting with British Prime Minister David Cameron.
Trudeau will also attend the Commonwealth heads of government meeting in Malta that starts on Friday, and attend the first day of the Paris climate summit next week.

"So now you're having a very busy time," the Queen said to Trudeau, as cameras recorded the earliest moments of their meeting.
"Just a little bit," Trudeau said. "But it's a good one. There's a tremendous positive energy."
"Good. Well, come get a seat," she said, gesturing towards two chairs near the fireplace. Cameras were then escorted out.
