9. Work for peace

To make the world a better, safer place, we will:

  • Meet the United Nations’ target that 0.7 per cent of Canada’s GDP go to Overseas Development Assistance.
  • Address the crises of HIV-AIDs, the Darfur tragedy and impacts of climate change in Africa.
  • Restore Canada’s peacekeeping role and help to build a permanent UN force to respond to conflicts and climate disasters.
  • In Afghanistan, shift from the NATO mission to one led by the UN.
  • Press for nuclear disarmament and declare Canada a Nuclear Weapons Free Zone.
