On a visit to Brazil yesterday, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper locked himself in one of the foreign minister's bathrooms, protesting the Brazilian president's decision that toasts and speeches take place after her lunch with Harper, and not during the lunch, as Harper wanted. The prime minister refused to leave the bathroom until the Brazilian president gave in to his demands, the Washington Post reports.
The account of what the CBC called "bathroom brinkmanship" came from the Brazilian newspaper Folha, quoting unnamed diplomats who witnessed the events. The Canadian embassy in Brasilia has reportedly denied the story, but the lunch did unquestionably begin 15 minutes late.
