The meeting will have a particular focus on economic growth and competitiveness, citizen security, energy, and climate change, the White House said.

Obama, Harper, and Calderon will hold a joint press conference in the White House Rose Garden later in the afternoon.
Later in the day, President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden are scheduled to hold a meeting with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
