In my opinion, there was no great impact. It is well known in each country's political circles that the Prime Minister of Canada had no other choice but to cancel the conference, given the political situation at the time in Canada, with the possibility of an election and everything else.

Every day the trilateral commission on environmental standards for widget production meets, so those things are not going to go away. What we've lost is the head,

are advancing quickly, because they have great leadership. In this case, staying in place actually means falling behind.
