International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear WeaponsInternational Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons is an annual observance that seeks to remind the global community of the urgent need to eliminate nuclear weapons. The primary purpose of the event is to raise awareness about the catastrophic consequences of using these weapons and to promote global disarmament. Along with educational events, governments and civil society organizations around the world use this day to foster discussions and advocacy for nuclear disarmament, stressing the importance of attaining a world free of nuclear weapons. The day's observance is rooted in a United Nations General Assembly resolution adopted in 2013, which expressed concern about the significant humanitarian and environmental impact of nuclear weapons. Canada, a proactive member of international disarmament forums such as the Non-proliferation Treaty (NPT) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), has consistently shown a strong commitment to nuclear disarmament. In Canada, the focus is on bolstering the global non-proliferation framework, ensuring the safe and secure use of nuclear energy, and fostering dialogue on how to reduce the role of nuclear weapons in security doctrines. International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons is observed annually in Canada on September 26th. On this day, various activities are organized nationwide, including seminars, panel discussions, and educational initiatives. These events bring together experts, policymakers, and concerned citizens to share information about the existing stockpiles of nuclear weapons, the risks associated with them, and the crucial role of disarmament in global peace and security. In doing so, Canada demonstrates its leadership and dedication to working with the broader international community in the pursuit of a world entirely free from the threat posed by nuclear weapons.
