MEASURES CONCERNING THE POSSIBLE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF
THE REFORM PROGRAM ON LEAST-DEVELOPED AND NET
FOOD-IMPORTING DEVELOPING COUNTRIES:  Canada
REPORTING PERIOD:  1998/99
__________________________________________________________________________________
(1) Quantity of food aid provided to least-developed and net food-importing developing
countries:
For the period of 1 August 1998 to 31 July 1999, Canada provided a total of 241,651 tonnes
of food aid to Least-Developed Countries (LDC s) and Net Food-Importing Developing Countries
(NFIDCs).  This volume of food aid had a total value of $95.271 million in 1998/99.  See Table A,
"Canadian Food Aid to LDCs and NFIDCs, 1 August 1998 – 31 July 1999", which provides
information for the period in question on the quantit y of Canadian food aid provided to LDCs and
NFIDCs with a breakdown by region and individual country and by commodity, quantity in metrictonnes, total value, and value of the portion which is channelled through the World Food Programme
(WFP).
2  In addition to the food aid directed to these specific LDCs and NFIDCs, $1.18 million worth
of Canadian food aid was distributed through the WFP to 'Central America Regional', a portion of this
food aid may have impacted on LDCs and NFIDCs in the region.
In addition, in FY1998/993, Canada provided a total of $148.53 million in food aid to other
developing countries (non-LDCs and NFIDCs).
In accordance with the Food Aid Convention (FAC 1995), for the crop year 1 July 1998 to
30 June 1999, Canada fully met its undertaking to provide a minimum of 400,000 tonnes of food aid
in wheat equivalent.

(3) Technical and financial assistance under paragraph 3(iii) of the Decision:
The Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) is the primary agency responsible
for the disbursement of Canadian official development assistance (ODA).  CIDA delivers programs
through bilateral (government-to-government) channels, partnership programs, as well as through
multilateral channels.
In FY1998/99, Canada provided a total of $ 2.594 billion in ODA, of which CIDA managed
$1.66 billion.  $95.26 million was channelled via the International Development Research Centre
(IDRC) which undertakes bilateral projects with a scientific or research focus.  The Department of
Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) is responsible for a small portion of ODA for certain
grants and contributions to international organizations, which usually have only a partial development
mandate.  Finally, the Department of Finance is also responsible for a portion of Canadian ODAinvolving contributions to the World Bank, the International Development Agency (IDA) and the
Enhanced Structural Adjustment Facility of the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
5
The ODA contributions managed by the Department of Finance do not fall within the purview
of this notification.  Information related to agriculture and related technical assistance6 provided to
LDCs and NFIDCs via CIDA, IDRC and DFAIT in FY1998/99 is set out below.
                                                     
4 Due to a delay in the compilation of CIDA & IDRC financial reporting for the FY1998/99 period, total ODA information
for this annual NF:1 reporting are only preliminary and still subj ect to minor variation.  Similarly, delays in final reporting  in
1997/98 resulted in this information being unavailable (N/A) in Canada’s NF:1 for 1997/98.  Total ODA in 1997/98 was$CDN 2.53 billion (CIDA alone $1.65 billion).
5 In addition, a small amount of Canada's ODA is channelled via other government agencies (the Export Development
Corporation, Canada Post) and provincial governments.
6 For the purposes of Section 3 of this Notification, as regards technical and financial assistance identified under paragraph
3(iii) of the Decision, information is restricted to agricultu ral and related activities:  agricultural production, infrastruct ure,
harvesting, human resource development activities in the agricultur e sector, and education related to agriculture.  In addition
to agriculture and related technical and financial assistance, Canada supports other sectors which contribute to food security.While not requested by the Agriculture Co mmittee for this Notification, Canada has voluntarily provided this additionalG/AG/N/CAN/34

THE CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AGENCY
Bilateral (Government-to-Government) Programmes
CIDA's bilateral assistance is delivered through three geographic branches (Africa & the
Middle East, Asia, and Americas & the Caribbean) as well as a special program for Central and
Eastern Europe7. Total bilateral programming (for the three core geographic regions) was $653.20
million in FY1998/998.
Canadian Bilateral programming consists of government-to-government programs and
projects which are carried out in accordance with bilateral agreements and planned in co-operationwith the country via the Country Development Poli cy Frameworks (CDPFs).  In FY 1998/99, bilateral
programming supported 482 projects in 60 of the LDCs and NFIDCs for a total value of $ 310.84
million.  This represents approximately
9 48 per cent of the total amount of Canadian bilateral
programs.  $18.90 million worth of bilateral prog ramming directed at LDCs and NFIDCs, was in
agriculture and related programming, which is approximately 3 per cent of total Canadian bilateralODA, and approximately 6 per cent of the bilateral programming going to these countries. Country
specific information on agricultural and relate d technical support to LDCs and NFIDCs via the
bilateral channel, in FY 1998/99 is as follows:

Multilateral Core Funding
Table C below represents CIDA's total FY 1998/99 contribution to specific multilateral
organizations with mandates that relate, completely or in part, to agriculture and/or food security.
Given the nature of multilateral organizations' funding and programming activities, no specific portion
of Canadian contributions can be identified as ta rgeted directly to LDCs or NFIDCs.  Nevertheless,
Canadian support to the World Food Programme (WFP) and the Consultative Group on International
Agricultural Research (CGIAR) in particular, are likely to be relevant to this notification.G/AG/N/CAN/34

Canadian Partnership Branch
The Canadian Partnership Branch (CPB) supports the activities of international non-
governmental organizations (NGOs) and Canadian organizations, academic & research institutions
and private sector firms in their development programs and projects with people and organizations of
developing countries. It is comprised of five divisions:
- the Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) Division provides contributions for projects and
programs that build partnerships including support for:  International Non-Governmental
Organizations (INGOs); Canadian NGO programmes; volunteer sending agencies; and the
NGO project facility;
- the International Cooperation Division (ICD) focuses on overseas development-related
activities of Canadian post-secondary institutions including support for the Educational
Institutions Program (EIP) as well as a sec tion for scholarships; Environmenta l NGOs ; and
Institutions. Also included in this division are the Cooperative, Unions and Professional
Associations Program (CUPA) which encourages cooperation through these groups;
                                                     
10 CIDA's IHA program has the following areas for intervention:  emergency health and nutrition,  basic education,  water
and sanitation,  shelter,  integrated basic human needs and peace building. Activities in support of agriculture and related
programming would likely fall within the integrated basic human needs component, part of which can be assumed to be
targeted at LDC and NFIDCs.
11 53 per cent is Food Aid channelled to LDCs and NFIDCs via the WFP as reported in Section 1, Table A.
12 CGIAR Research Centres core funding includes funds directed to: the Centre for International Forestry Research
(CIFOR), International Assistance for Strengthening Nationa l Agricultural Research (ISNAR), International Centre for

- the Industrial Cooperation Division (INC), facilitates development-related activities with the
Canadian private sector;
- the Youth Action Division is geared to promoting youth action for development;
- finally, the Policy, Strategy, Planning and Operations (PSPO) Division is largely a policy
group but also undertakes special programs such as: funding to facilitate NGO participation at
international conferences.
In FY 1998/99, CPB disbursed a total of $261 million on some 2716 projects and programs.
CPB support is designed to be flexible and responsive to the diversity of civil society and complex
development needs.  Therefore, it is often cross-sectoral in nature and can involve multiple numbersof countries and/or regions, as well as a variety of mechanisms for funding activities including via
program and project.  Consequently, it is difficult, in a large portion of the disbursements being
channelled through Canadian voluntary organizations, to identify data on specific sectors of activities
or in particular countries (in this case agriculture related activities in LDCs and NFIDCs). The
exception is the Industrial Co-operation Program, where country and sector specificity is possible.The following two tables (Table D and E) provide data for CPB programming for LDCs and NFIDCs
for the INC program, and for the other Voluntary programs as a whole, where there is indication of
agricultural and related project activity.G/AG/N/CAN/34

$931.01 thousand was disbursed on 13 agriculture and related projects operating in 9 LDCs and/or
NFIDCs.  Agriculture programming directed at LDCs and NFIDCs, therefore, represents about 38 percent of the total agricultural activity of the INC program and 2 per cent of the total overall INC
program.G/AG/N/CAN/34

For the "CPB Voluntary Program" (excluding INC), total disbursements for FY 1998/99 were
$217.6  million on more than 2000 programs, projects and activities.  At least 96 agriculture and
related projects, with a total value of $3.1 million, were operational in 28 LDCs/NFIDCs.  It is
important to note that the information provided  in Table E for the "CPB Voluntary Programs"
(excluding INC) should be considered as a mini mum indication only.  Significant relevant CPB
programming may not be reported here.  Where there is a clear indication of agriculture and related
activity in the focus countries, the disbursement has been indicated in Table E.  However, it has not
always been possible to capture information for projects/programs with only a sub-theme of
agriculture, or with a regional/global rather than country specific focus.  For example, CPB supported
89 global/regional agriculture and related projects, valued at $14.95 million, and it is likely that some
of this will benefit LDCs and/or NFIDCs in those regions.
THE INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH CENTRE (IDRC)
The International Development Research Centre (IDRC) is a Canadian public corporation,
which supports scientific research focused to meet the priorities of developing countries and the basic
needs of the world's poor. In FY1998/99 its total bu dget (including administrative costs) was
$95.26 million.  One of its core programming themes is "Food Systems Under Stress".  In FY
1998/99, IDRC undertook disbursements in the agri culture sector totalling $8.35 million, which
represented about 12.7% per cent of their total allocation.
A review for FY1998/99 of IDRC projects disbur sing in LDCs and NFIDCs in agriculture
and related sectors, identified some 41 projects with a value of $2.7 million (about 32% of all
disbursements in agriculture) as per the following Table F:

In addition to the $2.7 million in agriculture and related projects in LDCs and NFIDCs
indicated in Table F above, IDRC invested $ 2.1 million in agriculture and related projects in global
and regional research, some of which will likely benefit the countries in question.
DEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS AND INTERNATIONAL TRADE
Canada's annual core contributions to multilateral organizations such as the Food and
Agricultural Organization (FAO), the Inter-American  Institute for Co-operation on Agriculture (IICA)
and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) are channelled through the Department of
Foreign Affairs and International Trade.  In FY1998/99, these contributions were, respectively, $13.6,
$5.2 and $1.8 million.  A portion of these contributions can be assumed to contribute to food securityrelated activities because of the mandates of these multilateral organizations.
(4) Other relevant information with respect to actions taken within the framework of the
Decision:
Some Canadian provincial governments also have small international assistance programs
which may provide agriculture and related technical assistance to LDCs and NFIDCs.
Canadian aid offices in developing countries administer small Mission Administered Funds
(MAFs) which respond to small-scale, country specific requests.  Some of these funds, where theyexist in LDCs and NFIDCs, may have agriculture and related sector impacts.
Table G is included as a Voluntary Submission to this Notification.  This table provides
information on Canadian technical assistance to LDCs and NFIDCs in the sectors of fisheries and
agro-forestry.  This table has been included to  ensure that the Committee is provided with full
information on technical assistance provided by Canada, which contributes to the food security
situation of the countries in question.G/AG/N/CAN/34
