E ke Kuhina Nui Trudeau,
Kaomi ma ke kiʻi e nānā i ka PDF
ʻO ka mea nona ka inoa ma lalo, e hōʻike ana i kahi ʻāpana o ka hana Kanada, nā mea kaua, antiwar, nā pono kanaka, ka palekana o ka honua, a me nā hui kīwila ʻē aʻe, ke kākau nei e haʻi hou i kā mākou kūʻē mau ʻana i ka hoʻopuka ʻana o kāu aupuni i nā palapala hoʻokuʻu aku i nā mea kaua no nā mea kaua i hoʻoholo ʻia i Saudi Arabia. . Ke kākau nei mākou i kēia lā me ka hoʻohui ʻana i nā leka o Malaki 2019, ʻAukake 2019, ʻApelila 2020 a me Kepakemapa 2020 kahi i hāpai ai kekahi o kā mākou hui i nā hopohopo e pili ana i ke koʻikoʻi koʻikoʻi, kānāwai, kuleana kanaka a me nā hopena kanaka o ka hoʻololi mau ʻana o Kanada i nā mea kaua i Saudi Arabia. Minamina mākou i kēia manawa, ʻaʻole i loaʻa iā mākou kahi pane i kēia mau manaʻo mai iā ʻoe a i ʻole nā Kuhina Kuhina pili e pili ana i ia mea. ʻO ka mea koʻikoʻi, ke mihi nei mākou no ka ʻike ʻana o Kanada iā ia iho i ka uhaki ʻana i kāna mau ʻaelike hoʻomalu lima honua.
Mai ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke alakaʻi alakaʻi Saudi ma Yemen i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o 2015, ua lawe aku ʻo Canada ma kahi o $ 7.8-biliona i nā mea kaua i Saudi Arabia. Ua loaʻa kahi hapa nui o kēia mau hoʻololi ʻana ma hope o ke komo ʻana o Kanada i Kepakemapa 2019 i ka Arms Trade Treaty (ATT). Ua hōʻike maoli ʻia ka loiloi ʻana e nā hui hui kīwila ʻo Canada i kēia mau hoʻololi ʻana i ka uhaki ʻana i nā kuleana o Kanada ma lalo o ka ATT, hāʻawi ʻia i nā manawa i kākau ʻia o nā hana hōʻino Saudi i kona mau kamaʻāina ponoʻī a me ka poʻe o Yemen. Eia nō naʻe, noho mau ʻo Saudi Arabia i kahi huakaʻi nui loa ma Kanada no ka lawe ʻana aku i nā mea kaua ma kahi ākea ākea. No kona hilahila, ua kapa ʻia ʻo Canada e ka UN Group of Eminent Experts on Yemen ma ke ʻano he kekahi o nā mokuʻāina e kōkua ana e hoʻomau i ka hakakā ma o ka hoʻomau ʻana i ka hoʻolako ʻana i nā mea kaua i Saudi Arabia.
Mana Palani
ʻO ka UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), i kākoʻo ʻia e Kanada i ka makahiki 2011, e wehewehe pono ana nā Mokuʻāina e hana i nā hana e hōʻoia i ka maikaʻi o nā kulekele, nā kānāwai, nā hoʻoponopono, a me nā hana hoʻokō i ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i ka pilikia o ke komo ʻana i ka ʻoihana. ʻO nā hana hōʻino nui i nā pono kanaka a ua hana ʻia e hōʻoia i nā ʻoihana ʻoihana e hana ana i nā wahi i hoʻopilikia ʻia e ʻike, pale a hoʻēmi i nā pilikia pono kanaka o kā lākou mau hana a me nā pilina ʻoihana. Ke koi nei nā UNPs i nā Moku'āina e nānā pono i nā pilikia o nā hui e hāʻawi nei i ka wahine a me ka hana ʻino.
Ua hōʻike ʻo Kanada i kona manaʻo e hoʻopuka i kahi pepa e hōʻike ana i kāna kulekele haole wahine, e hoʻokō i kāna kulekele kōkua wahine ʻē aʻe a me kāna hana e holomua ai i ke kaulike kāne a me ka Women, Peace and Security (WPS) Agenda. ʻO ka hoʻoili ʻana i nā mea kaua i Saudi Arabia e hoʻohaʻahaʻa loa i kēia mau hoʻoikaika ʻana a ʻaʻole kūpono i ke kulekele haole wahine. Ua ʻōlelo ākea ke aupuni o Kanada e pili ana i ka hoʻokaumaha ʻia ʻana o nā wahine a me nā pūʻulu liʻiliʻi a i ʻole nā mea liʻiliʻi ma Saudi Arabia a ua hoʻopilikia ʻia e ka hakakā ma Yemen. ʻO ke kākoʻo pololei o ka militarism a me ka hoʻokaumaha, ma o ka hoʻolako ʻana i nā mea kaua, ʻo ia ke kūʻē pololei o ka hoʻokokoke wahine i nā kulekele ʻē aʻe.
Hoʻomaopopo mākou i ka hopena o ka lawe ʻana aku i nā mea kaua Kanada i Saudi Arabia e hopena i nā limahana i ka ʻoihana lima. No laila ke noi aku nei mākou i ke aupuni e hana pū me nā uniona kālepa e hōʻike ana i nā limahana o ka ʻoihana mea kaua e hoʻomohala i kahi hoʻolālā e hoʻopaʻa ai i nā ola o ka poʻe e hoʻopilikia ʻia e ka hoʻopau ʻana i nā mea kaua i Saudi Arabia. ʻO ka mea nui, hāʻawi kēia i kahi manawa e noʻonoʻo ai i kahi hoʻolālā hoʻololi hoʻokele waiwai e hōʻemi i ka hilinaʻi ʻana o Kanada i nā mea e hoʻokuʻu aku ai i nā mea kaua, ʻo ia hoʻi inā loaʻa kahi pilikia o ka hoʻohana hewa ʻana, e like me Saudi Arabia.
Ua hoʻokō kekahi mau mokuʻāina i nā palena ʻokoʻa i ka lawe ʻana aku i nā mea kaua i Saudi Arabia, me Austria, Belgium, Germany, Greece, Finland, Italia, Netherlands, a me Suedena. Ua oki loa ʻo Norewai a me Denemaka i ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā mea kaua i ke aupuni Saudi. ʻOiai ke ʻōlelo nei ʻo Canada e loaʻa iā ia kekahi o nā mana lima ikaika loa i ka honua, hōʻike ʻia nā ʻoiaʻiʻo.
Ke hoʻohūhū hou nei mākou no ka hoʻopuka ʻole ʻana o kou aupuni i kekahi ʻike e pili ana i ka papa aʻoaʻo lima lōʻihi o nā loea i hoʻolaha ʻia e nā Kuhina Champagne a me Morneau kokoke i hoʻokahi makahiki a me ka hapa i hala. ʻOiai he nui nā hoʻololi e kōkua i ke ʻano o kēia kaʻina hana - hiki ke hana i kahi hana kūpono i ka hoʻokō pono ʻana i ka ATT - ua noho nā hui kīwila ma waho o ke kaʻina hana. Pēlā nō, ʻaʻole mākou i ʻike i nā kikoʻī hou aʻe e pili ana i ka hoʻolaha ʻana o nā Kuhina e alakaʻi ʻo Canada i nā kūkākūkā multilateral e hoʻoikaika i ka hoʻokō ʻana i ka ATT i ka hoʻokumu ʻana i kahi aupuni nānā honua.
ʻO ke Kuhina Nui, ʻo ka lawe ʻana i nā mea kaua i Saudi Arabia e hoʻohaʻahaʻa i ka ʻōlelo a Kanada e pili ana i nā pono kanaka. Kūʻē lākou i nā kuleana kānāwai o ka honua ma Kanada. He pilikia nui ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā hōʻino koʻikoʻi o ke kānāwai kanaka kanaka a i ʻole nā pono kanaka, e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i nā hihia koʻikoʻi o ka hana ʻino i ke kāne, a i ʻole nā hana ʻino ʻē aʻe, ma Saudi Arabia a i ke ʻano o ka hakakā ma Yemen. Pono ʻo Kanada e hoʻohana i kona mana aupuni a hoʻopau koke i ka hoʻoili ʻana o nā kaʻa pale māmā i Saudi Arabia.
