I guess there's one way I could answer that. I recently went to Geneva to appear before the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. That's an example of one the international treaties that Canada has signed on to and where in the past they have commended Canada for the CCP. In their most recent report, they called for its reinstatement.
Am I answering your question? The international dimension, I guess, would be the international treaty obligations that Canada has signed, and this could be seen as supporting our fulfillment of those obligations.
