PM Harper in Ireland on trade mission ahead of G8 Summit

Prime Minister Stephen Harper is in Ireland Saturday as he continues his extended European trip.

While in Dublin, Harper is expected to meet with the Irish Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister.

Talks between the group are expected to focus on trade, and specifically the free-trade pact Canada is trying to broker with the European Union.

It’s believed Ireland and France have been pushing back against Canadian demands for more duty-free access to European markets.

Harper will stay in Dublin until Sunday, when he will head to northern Ireland for the G8 Summit.
