One of the surprises in arrangements for the summit is the absence of Canada's prime minister, Stephen Harper, from those expected to address the ceremonial opening session.One day this joke will stop being funny. Until then...
PS. Penlan notes in the comments that Harper will be the warm-up act for Hugo Chavez at the plenary session beginning on Saturday morning (April 18).

You left out some more info on that. And, no, I do not support Harper or the Cons:
"One of the surprises in arrangements for the summit is the absence of Canada's prime minister, Stephen Harper, from those expected to address the ceremonial opening session.
This, I have learnt, has resulted from "regrettable misunderstandings" involving the Port of Spain-based National Coordinating Committee, headed by Ambassador Luis Alberto Rodriguez, and was resolved by a "mature goodwill response" by the Canadian government.
Prime Minister Harper is now expected to be first to speak at the plenary session that begins on Saturday morning (April 18). That's when a range of other Heads of State and Government, among them Venezuela's Hugo Chavez, who is reported to be planning a surprise of his own in relation to Cuba's absence by virtue of the original US-influenced exclusion from the Organisation of American States (OAS) in 1962."
"Prime Minister Harper is now expected to be first to speak at the plenary session that begins on Saturday morning (April 18)."
Think he'll show for this?
He might. We'll find out whether he does or not.
It would be delicious if he had to introduce Chavez, ;).

He's too busy looking for his moral compass.

Well I wouldn't. This guy is a first class dictator.Well that said: I would like to wish you and all your readers a very "Happy Easter!"
If Canada has any chance of being represented, the summit will have to beat out FOX News for Harpo's attention.
Do you think it's easy making priorities - after all, a king has to be near his throne.
