Obama carried on an informal tradition that a U.S. president's first international trip be to America's neighbors to the north. He met with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper during the one-day trip. Above, the president walks on the tarmac with Michaëlle Jean, Canada's governor general, upon his arrival in Ottowa on Feb. 19, 2009.
