King Charles has met Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, under the shadow of inflammatory statements made about Canada by US President Donald Trump.
Trump has repeatedly spoken of making the neighbouring country the 51st state of America.
He has also vowed to impose new import taxes on Canada, one of the US's top trading partners.
Ahead of his meeting with the King at Sandringham, outgoing PM Trudeau said he would discuss issues of importance to Canadians, including "standing up for their sovereignty and independence as a nation".
The King has also extended an invitation to Trump to visit him in what will be an unprecedented second state visit.
