Talk:Quebec City Summit of the Americas
|
|
Nice job, Montrealais, but the Québec event was the third in a series of Summits:
- Miami (94) (when the FTAA idea was first taken on board)
- Santiago (98)
- Québec City (01)
(and there's a special one coming up this January in Monterrey &ndash can hardly wait).
Québec wasn't exclusively FTAA-related, either. None of them, really.
The homepage of the Summits process is here (http://www.summit-americas.org/default.htm), if you fancy taking a look; broader context and all that.

- If you would like to suggest a preferable title, please feel free to do so. Montréalais
- Third Summit of the Americas? Summit of the Americas (Québec City)? 2001 Summit of the Americas? Any of those'd give us room to cover past and future ones,too. Hjr

The Summit of th Americas is not that a fancy name for the General Assembly of the Organization of the American States, or it is a different instance?? Baloo rch 18:45, 24 Jan 2004 (PST)
- No -- different animals. For instance, OAS General Assembly is only at foreign-minister level; the Summits are for heads of state/govt. GA is annual; Summits are every 3 or 4 years. The Summits are not exclusively OAS events either -- there are other organizations involved. Etc. HTH, as they say. – Hajor 19:34, 24 Jan 2004 (PST)
