IV. Canadian Policy 8. Canada has taken an active role in the formation of the W.H.O. and its representative on the technical Preparatory Committee, Dr. G.B. Chisholm, is now acting as Executive Secretary of the Interim Commission. The W.H.O. is perhaps the least controversial of all the specialized agencies of the United Nations and it is surprising that so few states have ratified the Constitution after sixty-one states had signed it more than a year ago. Among those states which have not yet ratified is the United States, although this is considered due entirely to the pressure of other Congressional business. The Canadian delegation to the General Assembly should therefore do everything possible to urge other members, which have not yet ratified, to join the W.H.O. | |
