wo~ld where there is so much famine and deprivation caused by endemic poverty. Thus, Canada r~cognizes that there are many components in building the global conditions for peace. That is why we also give priority to promoting international understanding through enhanced contacts and communication. It is the development ,of human relationships at every level -from tourists to diplomats -which will solidify and cultivate the bonds of empathy that universally join us as members of the human family. Canada recognizes the vital work being done by the United Nations in increasing global awareness on the range of issues relating to disarmament, the arms race and war. It is in this context that we ~xpect to indicate our support again for the objectives of the world Disarmament Campaign, noting that Canada has made two previous contributions of $100,000 each to the Campaign. Recognizing that the work of the United Nations must be both supported and followed up by national Governments, Canada has established its own fund and. forums for furthering the Canadian public's awareness of arms control arid disarmament issues. The Department of External Affairs maintains a Disarmament Fund which helps a wide range of Canadian groups, non-governmental organizations and academic institutions discuss, research and disseminate information on disarmament questions in a thoughtful and balanced manner. We are pleased to note that this Fund has JSM/plj A/C.l/40/PV.S 9-10 (Mr. Roche, Canada) assisted Physicians for Social Responsibility, whose international body is the new Nobel Peace laureate. The Canadian Government has also established the Consultative Group on Disarmament and Arms Control Affairs, a non-governmental forum composed of 60 individuals who examine in detail specific arms control issues, particularly as they relate to Canada. The new Government-funded Canadian Institute for International Peace and Security, which conducts research and information programmes, is yet another Canadian instrument promoting peace and security.
