From the Paper:

"The Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) considers development within a global community as their vision. This international agency realizes that now, as never before, countries are inescapably linked to one another. How one country treats their environment affects the environmental concerns of another. Changing economic structures affect the economies of other countries, as is currently visible in regards to the economic relationship between China and the United States. Therefore, the development which the CIDA is aiming towards regards equity involving strengthening of economic, environmental, social and governmental policies that are built upon common goals, resources and values internationally and in their homeland, Canada."
