Governance
As one of the four pillars for strategic cooperation, governance, including rule of law and human rights, is at the forefront of Canada’s engagement in China. The December 2009 Canada-China Joint Statement commits both countries to increase dialogue and exchanges in this field.
Through a variety of initiatives, projects and events, the network of Canadian missions in China supports cooperation and engagement on the development of the rule of law, implementation of international human rights instruments, anti-corruption measures and policies, and other aspects of good governance.
