Canada - Latin American Foreign Policy

This is unencyclopedic and it sets a bad precedent. If we create articles for every nation's relations with a geographic, ethnic, or linguistic area then we'll be trying to work out disputes over vague, subjectively-defined subject matter. Jose João (talk) 11:24, 29 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep (but rename) - relations between Canada and any one of these countries is probably not notable, however Canada does often deal with other countries in a group, whether it is based on history and culture (Commonwealth, Francophonie), geography (Caribbean) or some combination of both (e.g. the CARIBCAN agreement with the Caribbean Commonwealth countries). This is no exception.  I'll note that this article is also a convention of other multilateral realtions pages such as Transatlantic relations and more to the point: United States-Latin American relations.

 * Keep as per above. Probably should be renamed, as the title is rather awkward, but otherwise no problem with the verifiable, sourced article.  Lankiveil (talk) 12:54, 29 December 2007 (UTC).
 * Keep, relations are often conducted on a regional basis, states have policies towards certain groups and this is a full informative article. Latin America is very cohesive and have common issues, it is often treated is a block by other states when developing policy and holding meetings.- J Logan t: 13:33, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
