Canada is opposed to Iran’s election to the Committee for Programme and Coordination. The Iranian regime’s grave human rights violations and threats to international peace and stability are inconsistent with the responsibilities of a UN oversight body.

This Remembrance Day, may we never forget those who served, the difference they made or the responsibility that comes with honouring their legacy.
Take a moment to pause, reflect and remember.
Lest we forget.

Canada voted in favour of the UN General Assembly resolution on the report of the International Criminal Court (ICC), reaffirming its longstanding support for the Court, its independence, and its mandate to deliver justice for victims of the most serious international crimes.
At a time when respect for international law and accountability is being tested, Canada remains committed to the principles of the Rome Statute and to a rules-based international order.
