A/75/123 • In United Nations multilateral forums, Canada has been working to advance norms and standards, and has been urging States to respect their human rights obligations. This includes addressing information and communications technology-facilitated violence against women and girls and ensuring their safety and personal integrity in both offline and online contexts. Canada has sought to advance these objectives in various ways, including by leading a resolution at the Human Rights Council on eliminating violence against women and girls in digital contexts. • Guided by its 2017 defence policy, Strong, Secure, Engaged, Canada is working to deter and respond to malicious cyberactivity, including by leveraging its cybercapabilities in support of military operations. The Canadian Armed Forces active cybercapability is subject to the same rigour as other military capabilities, including applicable domestic and international laws and obligations and rules of engagement. • At the June 2018 Charlevoix Summit, Group of Seven leaders announced the creation of the Rapid Response Mechanism. The Mechanism is mandated to coordinate Group of Seven efforts to identify and respond to diverse and evolving threats to our democracies, including disinformation, through information-sharing and analysis, and identifying opportunities for coordinated responses. The Mechanism is meant to address a broad spectrum of threats to democracy, for the benefit of Group of Seven members and the broader international community. Some other ongoing international efforts include: • Since 2015, Canada has committed over $4 million to support cybersecurity capacity-building projects. Canada has also funded the participation of female diplomats from the Americas in the Open-ended Working Group, as part of the Women in Cyber fellowship programme, which aims to promote the meaningful participation of women in United Nations cybernegotiations. • Canada supports North Atlantic Treaty Organization efforts to strengthen the cyberdefence of the alliance and of individual allies. • Canada has been working on implementing confidence-building measures in various forums, including the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, the Organization of American States and the Regional Forum of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. • Canada is an active member of the Freedom Online Coalition, an international multilateral organization that promotes human rights online, where it chairs a multi-stakeholder task force on artificial intelligence and human rights. Canada remains committed to advancing global efforts to ensure security and stability in cyberspace, for the benefit of all.
