CELA weighed in from time to time on Canada's participation in the Basel Convention. It deals more broadly with hazardous waste and requires, as you say, the consent of the importing country and accedence to a list of products, technologies and substances that would not be exported.
We have had concerns that, particularly in respect to some of those exports, Canada hasn't.... There were some shipments, for example, that sat on imports—in Thailand, I believe it was—that had originated from Canadian ports. It took a lot of campaigning by many civil society organizations both here and there for Canada to finally repatriate that waste.
We'd like to encourage Canada to be a leader in terms of how we're handling waste, and not to allow for that type of unfortunate action—which is harmful to the receiving countries and embarrassing for Canada.
