I think the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, or Will and Kate as you call them here, have set the bar pretty high this time, but it is a symbol of the importance of the relationship between our two countries and the long-standing affection that our people show toward one another that the young royal couple chose Canada as the destination for their first ever overseas visit and that the people here gave them such a warm reception.
Je crois que le duc et la duchesse de Cambridge, ou Will et Kate comme vous les appelez ici, ont mis la barre très haut, mais le fait que le jeune couple princier ait choisi le Canada comme destination de sa première visite à l'étranger et que les gens d'ici les aient si chaleureusement accueillis tous les deux témoigne de l'importance des rapports et de l'affection de longue date qui lient nos deux pays.
