Mission of Canada to the WTO

A Canadian Permanent Delegation to the United Nations in Geneva was first established in 1948, becoming a Permanent Mission in 1955. In 1970, the Mission took on activities relating to the Committee of the Conference on Disarmament. Following the GATT Kennedy round in 1967, the Mission also became responsible for monitoring international trade agreements. The Permanent Mission moved into its current premises at 5 Avenue de l'Ariana in 1999.
