North American Summit Concludes in Quebec

North American Summit Concludes in Quebec

The leaders of Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. concluded a two-day summit focusing on issues such as trade, the environment, and border security. Presidents Bush and Calderon discussed a joint plan to combat drug trafficking on both sides of the border. The leaders also met with business executives from across the continent and agreed to block the import of unsafe products into North America. The summit, in Montebello, Quebec, drew crowds of protesters, which has become a regular feature of President Bush's foreign excursions, especially where trade is at issue.
