What concerns me is that other countries have a legal obligation in their legislation. Canada does not do this, which violates the spirit and the letter of the treaty. I am concerned. Similarly, Canada makes a huge exception for the United States, which also violates the spirit and the letter of the treaty. I am concerned. I wonder whether Canada is watering down the treaty because the legislation implementing the treaty is so weak.
