OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, often criticized for dragging his heels on global warming, will attend U.N. talks in Copenhagen next month that are designed to find a successor to the Kyoto climate change protocol.
Harper spokesman Dimitri Soudas said on Thursday that no date for the prime minister's visit had yet been set. U.S. President Barack Obama said on Wednesday he would be in Copenhagen for the start of the meeting on December 9. (Reporting by David Ljunggren; editing by Rob Wilson)
