Close up of Chretien and wife followed by Hugo Chavez of Venezuela STORYLINE: Delegates leaving the first day of the Summit of the Americas in Quebec City covered their mouths with handkerchiefs to keep away the tear gas being lobbed at protestors by Canadian police. The meeting of 34 heads of state from the Western hemisphere was disrupted by numerous protest that grew violent after a number of demonstrators ripped down part of the concrete and chain-link fence surrounding the summit area. At the opening session, Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien blamed a small group of extremists for the violence. He said these people did not represent the vast majority of those who'd come to Quebec City in order to express peacefully and calmly their legitimate concerns, The disruption delayed the opening ceremony by at least an hour. George W. Bush's plans to meet his counterparts in small groups were also affected. He met Chretien as scheduled, but meetings with Andean leaders and Central American leaders were delayed and one with Caribbean leaders put off altogether. President Bush, attending his first international summit, held out the promise of a region of 800 million people "that is both prosperous and free." Yet Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez complained that many of the lofty goals set at a similar summit in 1994 have not been met. While all 34 countries at the summit have endorsed the goal of a free-trade zone stretching from the Arctic Circle to Cape Horn, differences remain as to the pace and terms of this economic integration. For the United States, the hemispheric pact would expand an existing free trade pact with Mexico and Canada to include Central and South America. A Free Trade Area of the Americas by 2005 was endorsed at the first hemispheric summit in 1994 in Miami and reaffirmed in 1998 in Santiago, Chile. However, progress has been slow, partly because Bush lacks full negotiating authority from Congress to move ahead.
