He said that Canadians and Biden are also aligned on values like job creation, prosperity for everyone, investing in the fight against climate change and stepping up measures against COVID-19

"These are things that we're going to be able to dig into significantly," Trudeau said.

He noted though that Canada is not going to be perfectly aligned with the U.S. on everything and that can happen with any president.

However, he mentioned that we're in a situation where "we are much more aligned on values" now.

"I'm very much looking forward to working with President Biden," Trudeau said.

He's actually the president's first call to a foreign leader after being inaugurated.
