So yesterday I had lunch and dinner with Stephen Harper. The lunch was at the Hyatt, lots of people. My table included the Cuban ambassador, who made a spirited defence of the Revolution, and a guy named Dana, from the Canadian embassy.
Dinner was at the presidential palace; a much more intimate affair. Maybe 60 people. The president spoke, so did Harper. Everyone best friends. Harper is impressive in person. No sign of the control-freak megalomaniac we know him to be. President Bachelet's English is good.
