Viewing cable 08OTTAWA1271, CANADIAN CO-SPONSORSHIP OF COMPLIANCE RESOLUTION

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables

1.  (SBU) Department of Foreign Affairs and International 
Trade (DFAIT) Deputy Director for Nuclear Non-Proliferation 
Craig Weichel has verified that Canada had co-sponsored the 
U.S. Compliance Resolution at the UN First Committee in 2005 
(ref a) and that DFAIT was therefore "in a good position" to 
co-sponsor the 2008 Resolution, despite the pre-election 
caretaker rules in effect that limit bureaucrats only to "do 
as they did" in the past until a new government emerges after 
the October 14 federal election.  Weichel confirmed that he 
had shared this information with colleagues at the Canadian 
Mission in Geneva.
