Foreign Affairs Minister Lloyd Axworthy has frequently spoken out against the impact of the civil war in Sudan on human security in that country, and he strongly reiterated his concerns regarding the conflict and the human rights situation during a meeting with the Sudanese Minister of Foreign Affairs in New York in September 1999. The two ministers also discussed the role of the oil sector in Sudan. An Assessment Mission was agreed on, mandated to: a) independently investigate human rights violations, specifically in reference to allegations of slavery and slavery-like practices in Sudan, and b) to investigate and report on the alleged link between oil development and human rights violations, particularly in respect of the forced removal of population around the oilfields and oil related development.--Page 1

The Government thanks the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International T rade for its June report entitled Canada and the Future of the World T rade Organization. The Committee’s work plays an important role in preparing Canada for future trade negotiations at the World T rade Organization (WTO) and has clearly demonstrated the value to the Government of its commitment to consult with Canadians from all parts of the country and from all walks of life. The impact of the forces of globalization on the international economy and the world trading system has been profound, and will certainly continue. Improvements in telecommunications and information technology, changes in business practices, and other developments have unleashed tremendous trade and investment opportunities. As a result, Canadians are selling, exploring, investing, and consulting in all corners of the world as never before. Selling the goods and services we produce in the global market promotes economic growth in Canada, creates jobs for Canadians, projects Canadian values abroad, and strengthens the fabric of our society at home.
