Canada PM Urges Obama to Avoid "Fiscal Cliff"

Excerpt:

Harper's office said Thursday the prime minister called Obama to offer his congratulations and used "the opportunity to convey to the President the importance of the White House and Congress working together to tackle the U.S. fiscal situation." A package of tax increases and government spending cuts will occur unless Congress acts by Jan. 1. Harper and investors see it as a serious threat to the global economy. Canada and the U.S. have the largest trading relationship in the world. Harper spoke on the phone from India. The two spoke for 10 minutes.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
