Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

E.O. 12958: DECL: 04/04/2013
TAGS: PREL, IZ, CA, UNGA
SUBJECT: CANADA OPPOSED TO UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY DISCUSSION
OF IRAQ
REF: A. STATE 84320 B. USUN 859 C. USUN 851 D. STATE
76597 E. STATE 74254
Classified By: Pol M/C Brian Flora for reasons 1.5(b) and (d).
(C) DFAIT Political Director Jim Wright told POL M/C April 4
that Canada does not want to see unhelpful debates on Iraq
surface in the various United Nations fora. Wright agrees
that the Security Council is seized with the issue and
believes it is making progress. Canada will therefore oppose
efforts to reopen the "Situation in the Middle East" agenda
item as a means of discussing Iraq. Wright said that he
would confirm this with Foreign Minister Graham and Canada's
position will then be communicated to the General Assembly
leadership.
