Uncertainty in Mexico race

There is some concern over who actually won in Mexico's elections. How does that affect Canada? Well, when the U.S., Canada, and Mexico finally had a summit, it would be the only meeting between Bush, Harper, and Fox.

The dynamic would either be a member from Fox's party or a more left-wing leaning candidate. Felipe Calderon of the National Action Party (Fox's party) apparently won the official count in Mexico's disputed presidential race. Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador of the Democratic Revolution Party, the favored candidate, is considered to be a close second.

We will have to wait to see who gets in and how that president can work with Harper. Canada and Mexico may need to meet more and bypass the U.S., currently reluctant to meet as much as is needed.
