Even in the United States, there is little in common. The Environmental Protection Association (EPA) sets different standards than the California Air Research Board (CARB). California emission standards are the tightest, where vehicles must meet Tier 2 Bin 5 standards, and thirteen other States will adopt these standards by 2012. Currently, British Columbia and Quebec are also interested in adopting these standards. Meanwhile, the rest of the U.S and Canada are using the EPA standards, which are currently at Tier 2 Bin 8 level. For those not familiar with emissions standards, Tier 2 standards are more strict than Tier 1 standards were in the past. Each Tier is divided into 11 Bin numbers, with the lower numbers indicating less emissions than a higher Bin number.

We'll be prepared for any eventuality," [Stephen Harper] said of the November presidential election where the two Democratic contenders -- Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama -- have said the agreement needs to be killed or rewritten to toughen environmental and labour standards.
"Canada is the United States' No. 1 supplier of energy," he said. "We are a secure and stable supplier that is of critical importance to the future of the United States.
The whirlwind summit in hurricane-battered New Orleans was designed by [George W. Bush] to showcase the city's recovery. The leaders stayed close to the centre of town, which was largely spared Katrina's wrath in 2005, and only ventured near some of the ruined neighbourhoods when they had breakfast at a well-known restaurant called Dooky Chase.
