About Group of 78

1. Peace. Peace is essential to justice, to economic well-being, to human survival. Sustainable peace demands common security; an end to the threat of nuclear war; an international order based on the rule of law, a strong United Nations and effective institutions for the peaceful settlement of disputes. Canadians have the experience, knowledge and capacity – civilian, diplomatic, and military – to lead in the pursuit and achievement of peace. 2. Justice. Prosperity, equity, inclusion and embracing diversity build peaceful communities, local, national and global. They demand the rule of law, human rights, democratic institutions, fair trade and, above all, an end to poverty. Canadians have the wealth, the experience and the generosity of spirit to lead in the pursuit of justice. 3. Survival. The impact of modern human activity on the survival of our planet is beginning to be understood. As an Arctic nation, we in Canada are responsible for far more than our share of global resources; sadly, we are also responsible for far more than our share of environmental damage. Canadians have the geography, the resources, and the imagination to lead in the pursuit of survival. We call on Canadians to join with others to become stewards of the world. Nothing less.
