Harper Takes Canada to the International Stage

CBC Reporting that:

Prime Minister Stephen Harper had an informal meeting Saturday night with Chinese President Hu Jintao before a banquet at the Asia Pacific Economic Co-operation summit in Hanoi.

Followers of the Canadian political scene recall that earlier this week, confusion reigned as the two leaders tried to compare calendars. What Globe and Mail described as "the on-again, off-again snub China delivered to Canada this week by cancelling, then apparently uncancelling" the meeting finally went ahead this weekend.

SheenaVision brings her dear readers an insider scoop. Apparently the confusion started when Harper approached the Chinese protocol officer and requested an audience with the First Minister. The officer nodded and said, "Hu". To which Harper replied "What's on Second".
