9 Planned spending from 2017-18 to 2018-19 decreased by $132.6 million. The variance (-38 percent) is principally

due to sunsetting funding, such as the Global Partnership Program for the destruction, disposal and securing of weapons and materials of mass destruction and related expertise ($73.1 million), Canada’s Migrant Smuggling Prevention Strategy ($6.0 million), as well as the reduced funding related to the Peace and Stabilization Operations Program ($55.0 million). 10

Planned spending from 2018-19 to 2019-20 decreased by $171.9 million. The variance (-80 percent) is primarily attributable to sunsetting funding, such as the Peace and Stabilization Operations Program ($153.9 million), the Counter-Terrorism Capacity Building Program in the Sahel region of Africa ($9.9 million), and funding to address crises in Iraq and Syria and the impacts on the region ($7.9 million). 11

Description: Canada’s annual assessed contribution to the OSCE is an obligation arising from its membership in what has become the world’s largest regional security organization, with 57 participating states from North America, Europe and Eurasia. Canada’s contribution furthers its foreign policy goals related to human rights, fundamental freedoms, democratization, fragile states, conflict prevention, crisis management, mediation, post-conflict development, and arms control. This is achieved by funding OSCE operations; Permanent Council meetings and working groups; policy conferences and expert workshops; and on-the-ground mediation, social betterment, and capacity-building programs implemented by the OSCE Secretariat, autonomous institutions, and field missions.

Canada’s OSCE contributions also include payments made to administer and implement two legally binding conventional arms control regimes to which Canada is state party: the Treaty on Open Skies (for which Canada is a treaty co-depository, together with Hungary) and the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe, as well as the politically binding Vienna Document. Recipients are not required to repay funds obtained under this transfer payment program.

55

Expected Results:

Effective and timely implementation of the decisions of the OSCE Permanent Council as well as the Ministerial Council as measured by the organization’s successful work and progress on such issues of importance to Canada as: human rights; election monitoring; democracy building; good governance; tolerance and non-discrimination; safeguarding fundamental freedoms; combatting human trafficking; counterterrorism and extremism; as well as enhanced engagement with key OSCE Partners.

Continuous monitoring of the security situation in Europe, as measured by the OSCE’s regular reporting and early warning function provided by the organization’s Conflict Prevention Centre, its specialized institutions and its Field Operations, including the Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine. In this regard, the OSCE’s work and engagement in the region’s conflicts (e.g. Ukraine, Nagorno-Karabakh, Moldova-Transnistria, and Georgia’s secessionist regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia) contribute to promoting dialogue and lowering tensions.

Concerted programming to actively contribute to conflict prevention, conflict resolution and post-conflict institution building, as measured by the successful implementation of the Permanent Council and the Ministerial Decisions that strengthen the OSCE’s conflict prevention toolkit, especially in the key areas of early warning and mediation. In addition, the Transnational Threats Unit consolidates and coordinates the OSCE’s work on counterterrorism, border security, policing and anti-trafficking.

Proper management of the organization’s resources, as measured by the audits on the OSCE’s financial statements and by the renewed efforts of the OSCE Secretary General to enhance the organization’s accountability and transparency.

Promotion and consolidation of democracy, and strengthening of human rights, governance and the rule of law, as measured by the relevance of resolutions and initiatives with respect to people’s participation, domestic policies, resource level and cooperation (i.e. capacity building, best practices and legal matters) as well as reports and statistics on implementation by the OAS;

Enhanced regional multilateral cooperation on security issues in the Americas, as measured by the relevance of resolutions and initiatives with respect to domestic policies, resource level and cooperation (i.e. capacity building, best practices and legal matters) as well as reports and statistics on implementation by the OAS, including on Canadian-funded projects executed in partnership with the OAS; and

Increased effectiveness and efficiency of the OAS through increased accountability and transparency as measured by the degree of implementation of the reform agenda mandated by resolutions and decisions by OAS member states as presented in reports.

World Trade Organization

Name of transfer payment program World Trade Organization (WTO) (funding approved by vote in Parliament)


End date Ongoing





Description: The WTO is a cornerstone of Canada’s trade policy, providing a common set of rules, rights and obligations for the trade policies of its 164 members and a forum for Canada to advance its trade interests on the broadest possible basis. The WTO provides Canada with the opportunity to build alliances, influence rules and secure concessions on issues where it may otherwise have less leverage. Issues such as agriculture subsidies and regulatory concerns (e.g. sanitary and phytosanitary measures) are more effectively addressed multilaterally. The WTO also has a robust dispute settlement system, of which Canada is a regular user. Through the ongoing work of its many committees, the WTO provides a forum for Canada to raise and resolve a range of trade irritants and market access issues. Finally, WTO is also an active forum for trade policy monitoring and surveillance.

The Doha Development Agenda (DDA), which is the name of the most recent round of WTO negotiations, was

http://www.who.int/about/finances-accountability/budget/B140_36-en.pdf?ua=1

http://www.who.int/about/finances-accountability/budget/PB201617_en.pdf?ua=1

67

launched in 2001. Negotiations have been effectively stalled since 2008, with WTO members disagreeing on whether the DDA mandates remain a relevant and viable basis from which to advance multilateral negotiations. At the biennial Ministerial Conference in late 2015, WTO Ministers for the first time did not agree to renew the DDA mandate. Canada, with the other WTO members, nevertheless continues to work to find a way to decisively move WTO negotiations forward, including addressing the outstanding Doha issues.

Expected results:

As a trade-dependent country, Canada has been actively involved in all areas of the WTO negotiations: o Canada’s key interests are protecting the integrity of the WTO agreements and institutions; pursuing a

number of remaining Doha-round issues, particularly domestic support for agriculture; advancing negotiations on plurilateral agreements such as the Environmental Goods Agreement (EGA); and ensuring that the WTO remains relevant to the realities of 21st century economies, including for example, by delivering outcomes in negotiations on contemporary economic issues such as electronic commerce.

o While the broader DDA negotiations are at an impasse, Canada continues to work with other WTO members to find constructive ways to advance multilateral discussions on issues facing the global trading system, both the outstanding Doha issues and new issues such as electronic commerce. Progress in these areas will be measured by WTO reports (including committee reports) and developments in WTO negotiations (for example, outcomes of the 11th WTO Ministerial Conference).

o Implementation of the outcomes of the 10th WTO Ministerial Conference (MC10) and the ratification of the Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA) will build confidence among WTO members and could form a constructive basis for advancing future negotiations.

o Given the challenges in the WTO’s multilateral negotiations, Canada has been participating in plurilateral negotiations with a subset of like-minded WTO members in a number of areas. For example, Canada is negotiating on the WTO EGA and has agreed to Chair WTO plurilateral negotiations on the elimination of harmful fisheries subsidies.

Continued work with WTO members to advance discussions on issues facing the global trading system: o WTO members have begun to consider possible next steps to advance the multilateral trading system.

WTO ministers will meet in December 2017 for the WTO’s 11th Ministerial Conference (MC11). Key WTO trade ministers, including from Canada, are expected to participate in two or three mini-ministerial meetings during 2017 to help advance negotiations. There is consensus among WTO members that the WTO must deliver meaningful results at MC11, and Canada is actively engaged in discussions aimed at identifying possible deliverables.

Participation in accession negotiations and reviews on WTO members: o Canada participates in the accession negotiations for all countries seeking to join the WTO, as measured

by the number of new accessions to the WTO. Canada also participates in the review of the trade policies of each WTO member, as well as preparing for its own review (every four years).

Participation in the WTO dispute settlement system: o Canada is one of the most active participants in the WTO dispute settlement system, as measured by the

number of disputes in which Canada is a participant as either a direct or intervening party. The WTO’s dispute settlement system is the world’s preeminent body for discussing and resolving international trade disputes. Canada is also an active participant in efforts to review the Dispute Settlement Understanding.

The governance mechanisms of international organizations include oversight services. Global Affairs Canada will rely upon these oversight regimes to assist in monitoring the WTO’s accountability for achieving objectives agreed to by its members and for stewardship of its funds, which are contributed by member states, including Canada.

Canada, as a member of the WTO, also has access to all audits, evaluations and performance reviews completed by or on behalf of the WTO.

Program 1.2 Diplomacy, Advocacy and International Agreements

Description: CIGI supports world-leading research in global governance, particularly global economic and financial governance, international security and international law. CIGI furthers Canada’s interest in having a stable and well-governed global system by bringing academics, policy experts and researchers together from around the world to generate policy recommendations on pressing international developments. In 2003, the Government of Canada contributed $30 million, which was matched by CIGI and subsequently added to by other public and private donors to establish an endowment fund. The Centre continues to be funded by the proceeds of this endowment.

Summary of annual plans of recipient

CIGI’s research program concentrates on global economic, security and international legal issues with a special crosscutting focus on international economics and trade, intellectual property and innovation, fostering national prosperity, and climate change.

One major program involves ensuring stability within the global economy, with an emphasis on the place of Canada in this dynamic. This stream of work addresses limitations in the way nations tackle shared economic challenges by focusing on global financial governance and sovereign debt management. Efforts touch on global forums (e.g. the G20) and international finance (e.g. central banks, the IMF, the World Bank and the Financial Stability Board) with a view to the regulation and promotion of macro-economic coordination. CIGI also looks at China’s role in the global economy and how Canada can take advantage of growth in Asia. As a corollary, programming examines economies in crisis and the challenges of sovereign debt, to better understand how to preserve the stability of the global economic system and prevent contagion in the event of sovereign default. CIGI experts also seek innovative solutions to finance sustainable development and, in collaboration with the Institute for New Economic Thinking, are generating ideas to accelerate innovation, productivity and trade.

CIGI also undertakes an advanced program of research related to contemporary global security challenges. Work focuses on Internet governance and cyber security, specifically in the management of blockchain technology, the future of the Internet in China and the implementation of new modes of governance of the Internet within the D10 (Democratic 10) group of like-minded democratic states addressing global security and governance challenges. Within the overarching security program, CIGI also explores the linkages between regional and global security in the context of innovations in conflict management and prevention and effective governance. Geographic areas of concentration include the Arctic, the Asia-Pacific region, Africa, the greater Middle East and Central Asia. CIGI’s newest area of focus is international law, which, as a program, seeks to address the issues that are most important to global innovation, prosperity and sustainability. These include innovative approaches to intellectual property, the environment, and trade and finance.

CIGI is a partner on several new technology initiatives, including OpenCanada.org and ArcticDeeply.org, that sit at the intersection of public policy, scholarship and journalism to present and explain critical issues affecting Canada.
