Three Amigos

The leaders of the North American countries met in Mexico for what is called a Little Summit. They discussed issues pertaining to our continents and the countries on a whole. On the agenda are issues such as the 'Buy American' provision set out by Obama, the immigration regulations for Mexicans instated by Harper and general concerns and plans for the economy and violence. According to CNN, the themes of the summit are: one, economic recovery and competitiveness; two, citizen safety and security; and three, clean energy and climate change. There are no major announcements expected, and CBC has claimed that, for Canada, it is really just important to get some face time with our neighbour.
