Ahmadinejad got a University, Harper got a think tank.
It's UN field trip week for most of the world's leaders, as they take part in the annual speechifying contest down Manhattan way. In their spare time the world's Prime Ministers and Presidents found some sideline activities to kill the time, Mr. Ahmadinejad took on the faculty and student body of Columbia University, while our Prime Minister attended a more genteel debating society of New York.
Part of Prime Minister Stephen Harper's travels in New York this week have taken him to an American think tank, where the Council on Foreign Relations examined the major issues of the day.
One question posed by famed author and Kennedy biographer Ted Sorenson, asked Mr. Harper why Canada was not as hated as the United States is on the world stage.

Uh, Stephen, we believe this was a compliment...
