Compendium of Canada's engagement in international environmental agreements and instruments. Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal. : En4-381/1-3-2018E-PDF
"Every year, a large amount of dangerous waste moves between countries. The Basel Convention is a convention between 186 countries. It is under the United Nations and has been active since 1992. This convention controls the movement of dangerous wastes between these countries. The goal is to protect the environment and human health. It is important because it also allows Canada to better manage its wastes. The countries meet every year and discuss environmental issues such as marine litter, management of electronic waste, and dangerous chemical substances. Canada is actively engaged in the work of this convention"--Plain language summary.
