<p>Justin Trudeau’s comments come amid reports claiming that he had agreed for Canadian taxpayers to foot Harry and Meghan’s security bill during their time there.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>Speaking to Global News on Monday about the move, Mr Trudeau said: “I think most Canadians are very supportive of having royals be here, but how that looks and what kind of costs are involved, there are still lots of discussions to have.”</p>

<p>Mr Trudeau said there were still “a lot of decisions” to be had by the royal family and Harry and Meghan regarding the “level of engagement they choose to have”.</p>
<p>“We are obviously supportive of their reflections but have responsibilities in that as well,” he said.</p>
<p>“We’re not entirely sure what the final decisions will be.”</p>
<p>His comments echo those of Canada’s finance minister Bill Morneau who said the government “had not spent any time” thinking about the couple’s security costs.</p>

<p>In an interview filmed by CBC, Mr Morneau said: “We obviously are always looking to make sure that as a member of the Commonwealth that we play a role.</p>
<p>“We have not had any discussions on that subject at this time.”</p>
<p>It comes after a report in the London Evening Standard claimed Mr Trudeau agreed that his country’s taxpayers should cover the cost for the couple’s protection.</p>
<p>Earlier on Monday, the Queen issued a statement in support of the couple saying the royal family “respect and understand” their desire for a “new life”.</p>

<p>The head of state announced there would be a “period of transition” with Harry and Meghan – who have said they want to be financially independent and step back as senior royals – living in Canada and the UK.</p>
