This group of disarmament agreements outlines Canada’s participation in key international instruments aimed at restricting and eliminating harmful weapons. It includes the Convention on Cluster Munitions, the Chemical Weapons Convention, and protocols addressing the use of certain conventional weapons, including mines, booby‑traps, and devices with indiscriminate or excessively injurious effects. These agreements support Canada’s commitment to global arms control, humanitarian disarmament, and the reduction of weapons that pose significant risks to civilians.
