TRUDEAU: Canada and the United States have been neighbors a long time and Canadians and Americans have stood together, worked together at home and around the world. We fought and died together in battle fields in World War I and World War II, and Korea, and Afghanistan. But there have been times where we have differed in our approaches ... and that’s always been done firmly and respectfully. The last thing Canadians expect is for me to come down and lecture another country on how they choose to govern themselves. My role and our responsibility is to continue to govern in such a way that reflects Canadians' approach and be a positive example in the world.
