BELEK, Turkey (Reuters) - Justin Trudeau, Canada's charismatic new prime minister, made his international debut on Sunday and was greeted by business executives seeking selfie pictures and an appointment book full of meeting requests from the world's most powerful politicians.

Canadian leaders rarely cause a stir at international gatherings but there was no chance the energetic 43-year-old Trudeau would remain unnoticed at a Group of 20 summit in Turkey.
