Canada's governor general has welcomed the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to Ottawa at the start of the royal couple's first official overseas tour.
"Welcome to Canada - honeymoon capital of the Commonwealth," David Johnston said before crowds at Government House.
Prince William, who began his address in French, Canada's official language alongside English, said he and his wife had had a "longing" to visit together.
The duke and duchess earlier visited Canada's National War Memorial.
'Geography unsurpassed'
The couple will be staying at Government House - also known as Rideau Hall - while in Ottawa.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper spoke after the governor general, saying: "Your journey across our fair Dominion marks the beginning of your journey into the hearts of Canadians. We wish you all the best on both counts.
"We are both honoured and delighted that you have chosen us for your first official tour together."
Prince William responded: "Merci beaucoup, Votre Excellence et Monsieur le Premier Ministre, pour votre accueil chaleureux."
This was translated live on Canadian television as: "Thank you very much Your Excellency and Prime Minister for your warm welcome."
The duke continued: "Catherine and I are so delighted to be here in Canada.
Prince William: "We've been looking forward to this moment for a very long time"
