While Canada supports the continuance of these projects we have no resources to contribute to their development and therefore reluctantly accept their withdrawal should the U.S. development body find such action necessary.

Canada does not support the withdrawal of this project and will make every effort to provide the necessary resources to ensure its continuance. However we note that the U.S. development body has already terminated work on the project at its level making its continuance within WG15 that much more difficult.

Canada has no volunteers for this post.
