26. I don't think that that's what happened. Here's what I think happened:

Announcement: "major Obama official holds meeting with Canadian officials"

Obama: Alright, who had a meeting with Canada?

Everyone: Canada? I haven't met with Canada to go over policy.....

Obama: We haven't been meeting with Canada

Canada: Well, someone met with our counsel in Chicago...

Goolsbee: That's what they were talking about? I'm a major official? Oh shit! Uh, Senator Obama....

Obama: Oh shit! Well, let's take our medicine and get this out there.

What no one has noticed in all this is that when the actual memo was released, it confirmed everything that Obama's been saying on the stump. The labor and environmental provisions in NAFTA need to be renegotiated. AS I've said before, until someone locates a maquiladora in Ontario, I don't think Canada has anything to be concerned about.
