Last week, Japanese Prime Minister Abe endured a painfully awkward 19-second-long handshake with Donald Trump, while meeting the new US President for the first time.

Man, his face when Trump finally let go.
Yesterday, it was the turn of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to meet with Trump.

He’s basically the complete opposite of Trump.

So the world’s eyes were on how Trump and Trudeau would react to each other, and in particular their first handshake.
Trudeau's face summed it up:
