Hu's North America Tour
Globe and Mail: "The President's tour, which began in Ottawa last week and then took him to the United Nations and Mexico, has been low key, with an emphasis on trade agreements and economic partnerships.
But at nearly every stop, protesters have shown up to urge better protection of human rights in China. And Mr. Hu will probably see more demonstrations in Vancouver when he arrives this afternoon."
News Digest: "While the West has viewed China's rising with wariness, the Chinese press sees Chinese President Hu Jintao's visit to North America as a success, despite the fact that Hu's travel plans had been downgraded due to Hurricane Katrina. This is Hu's first U.S. visit since he became president in 2003."
