Nuclear Disarmament

Canada's approach to nuclear disarmament is based on the view that the most workable way forward is by a continuous step-by-step process to reduce and eliminate nuclear weapons, steadily advocating national, bilateral and multilateral measures.

Canada pursues this policy in all relevant arenas. These range from support for regional measures such as nuclear-weapons-free zones, to practical assistance by the G8 for disposing of weapons-grade fissile material from dismantled warheads, to strengthening the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), and negotiating a Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty in the Conference on Disarmament (CD).
