WASHINGTON — The White House has confirmed that U.S. President George W. Bush will travel to Canada this summer to meet Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the Mexican president in Quebec.

The announcement says Bush will be in Montebello, Quebec, on August 20 and 21 to meet Harper and Mexican President Felipe Calderon.

The White House says the three leaders will discuss global and hemispheric issues at the North American summit.

News of the meeting first came out last month when it was reported that the summit would be held at a luxury rural hotel resort in Montebello.

Officials have said the three leaders are eager to change the impression that North America has turned inward since the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States, arguing that statistics don't reflect this.
