Where you sit is where you stand. As well as protectionism (a big issue in both Canada and Mexico) for the Americans there is the drug running from Mexico, for Mexico our visa requirements, and for Canada the "thickening" of the border.

A lot to cover in 24 hours.

Obviously ABC news was more interested in dragging Harper into the US healthcare morass than talking about drugs.
I thought the section on Afghanistan good but Harper danced around saying that it's time for other NATO countries to step up to the plate for once. I guess that's bad diplomacy to name the cowards.
