U.S. President joe biden touches down in Ottawa

U.S. President joe biden arrived thursday evening in Ottawa for a whirlwind 27 hour visit expected to focus on both the friendly and thorny aspects of the Canada-U.S. relationship, including protectionism and migration on both sides of the border.

Ottawa - Ottawa is the capital city 

Toronto is canada's largest city

whirlwind - adj - busy, eventful, see lots of people/things

thorny - negative

It's quite a packed schedule for a short trip, " said white house national security council spokesman John kirby on wednesday.

packed - busy/crowded

the event was packed

My weekend was action-packed / packed!

"This is a meaningful visit. Canada is one of the United States' closest allies and friends and has been now for more than 150 years. This will be the first true in-person bilateral meeting between the two leaders in Canada since 2009."

The first year of biden's term focused on rebuilding Canada-U.S. relations following Trump's divisive term in office.

on rebuilding - preposition + gerund

I need to rewatch this lesson at least 3 times (watch again)

divisive - division/divided

His policy is very divisive

The second focused on meeting obligations, "including prioritizing orderly and safe migration through regular pathways," Kirby said

"Now, heading into the third, this visit is about taking stock of what we've done, where we are and what we need to prioritize for the future."

head - going / entering

I'm heading to the store.

When do you head to the airport?

We need to take stock of our financial situation.

assess / think about the current situation

So far neither the White House nor the Prime Minister's Office have confirmed if there will be any impromptu stops during the trip, meaning we'll all have to wait and see whether there will be another 'Obama cookie' moment-- when then U.S. President Barack obama popped into a bakery in the Byward Market during his 2009 trip.

impromptu - unplanned

popped into - is it ok if we pop into this store? I need to buy X

We popped in. (= visited quickly)

My friend popped in over the weekend.
