[Imc-ftaa] Upcoming OAS conference in Fort Lauderdale

[Sam Eifling]

Hello. I write for a weekly paper in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and I'm trying to get as much background as I can on the Organization of American States before its conference here the first weekend in June. My main questions are, what OAS issues are most likely to draw protesters, and would you expect the conference here to draw much opposition? I know it's not on the scale of the FTAA meeting 18 months ago in Miami, but I'm not sure how to gauge what kind of event we may see here.

Thanks for your help,
Sam Eifling
