The release of former diplomat Michael Kovrig and businessman Michael Spavor - known here as "the two Michaels" - came hours after Meng Wanzhou, the chief financial officer of Huawei Technologies, reached a deal with the U.S. Justice Department in a criminal case allowing her to return to China.
The two men were detained several days after Canada arrested Meng on a U.S. extradition request.
"For the 1,000 days, they have shown strength, perseverance, resilience and grace," Trudeau said in a news conference, "and we are all inspired by them."
