	Canada's Head of State
		Canada is a constitutional monarchy, and so its head of state is the monarch, the authority of whom has been delegated almost completely to the governor general since 1947.
		Whereas the prime minister, as head of government, speaks for the political majority; the governor general, as head of state, speaks for the whole country.
		Canada purposely chose to exclude the power to amend its own constitution from the Statute because, at the time, internal agreement could not be reached on an amending formula.

	Remarks With Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay After Their Meeting
		The United States has been pressing very hard in the Security Council to get movement on a number of issues, and most especially there needs to be movement on a blue-hatted force, planning for it, troop generation for it.
		Canada has played a part, will play a part and are currently, as they are in the United States and other countries, assessing just what we can do to make the most difference.
		Very briefly, I believe that Canada is in the position that we do support the international need to respond with one voice, the need to demonstrate to Iran that we very clearly want them to comply upon paying of sanctions.

	Judicial Assistance in Canada
		Canada''s accession to the Hague Convention on the Service Abroad of Judicial and Extra-Judicial Documents in Civil and Commercial Matters (20 UST 361; TIAS 6638) provides a simple but indirect method for effecting service in civil and commercial matters when more direct means prove inappropriate or unfeasible.
		Canada is not a party to any multilateral treaty on obtaining evidence, such as the 1970 Hague Convention on the Taking of Evidence Abroad in Civil or Commercial Matters.
		Although there are no rules in Canada which prohibit foreign tribunals or litigants from taking evidence from a willing person, the conduct of a hearing presided over by a foreign official or pursuant to a federal or state investigation remains subject to the consent of the Government of Canada.
