One thing for sure: President Obama passed through the press conference room – a secure route to the building exit – and said something that sounded like, โ€œItโ€™s time to go home.โ€ He also shook hands with the incredibly cute young Danishย  women who have been working in the media centre, setting off a series of whoops andย screams.

Then he turned up, a disembodied voice on a Whitehouse feed, having a cosy press conference with the Whitehouse press corps, declaring that a deal is in hand and that it will get us moving in the right direction. If Canada just stopped moving in the WRONG direction, that would beย progress.
