Ever since Pakistan illegally tested a nuclear device, Canada has imposed ban of arms sales to Pakistan. Globe & Mail
The Harper government moved Thursday to quash Defence Minister Peter MacKay's assertion that Canada is considering lifting a ban on arms sales to Pakistan, asserting that it has no plan to allow military exports to resume.
It appeared to be an embarrassing contradiction of Mr. MacKay, who three days ago told The Globe and Mail that the Conservatives are “contemplating” an end to the 11-year-old ban.[...]
“Canada's policy regarding military exports to Pakistan remains unchanged,” said Catherine Loubier, Mr. Cannon's communications director.
She added: “Was it considered? No. There are no plans to lift restrictions on the arms sales ban with Pakistan.”
