UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. - Prime Minister Stephen Harper wants to talk about maternal health, the Ukraine crisis and Iraq when he's in New York this week.
He'll spend several days here, participating in a question-and-answer session with business leaders, speaking at the United Nations General Assembly and joining UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon at an event on women's health.
The Canadian government, however, is being confronted with an issue it might rather avoid.
A big piece of news at the start of this week's UN meetings, which include a climate summit, is a plan to undermine the oil industry.
The $860-million Rockefeller brothers charitable fund, created from a family oil fortune, has announced it will dump its fossil-fuel investments.
Harper isn't attending the summit, but will be at a working dinner on climate change on Tuesday.
