North/South Dialogue. The Canadian Foreign Minister has indicated his support for a French initiative (launched at the July 1989 French Bicentenary Celebrations, following approaches from Egypt, Venezuela, Senegal, India and Brazil) for a new North/South Dialogue. Suggested agenda topics from the Egyptians are the environment, economic co-operation (especially debt), transfer of rechnology and drugs.
We consider that these subjects are already adequately covered by existing institutions.
