Obama's First Foreign Trip (amateur video)

He was greeted by a crowd of well-wishers on Parliament Hill, some of whom waited for hours outside in the snow to see him arrive. He then met with Prime Minister Stephen Harper, they had lunch with senior ministers and advisers, held a press conference together, and announced a green-technology agreement.

Obama concluded his trip with an unannounced visit to Ottawa's Byward Market, where the stunned customers and employees of coffee shops and restaurants dropped what they were doing to come over and say hello. He picked up some souvenirs for his daughters and tried to buy some pastries, but the vendor refused to take his money.

Obama and his gigantic motorcade then left for the airport, where he posed for pictures with employees of the U.S. embassy and their children, and then had a meeting with Canada's opposition leader Michael Ignatieff.
