1. “of this matter In the absence of a satisfactory Libyan response to the various bilateral demarches made to it and, given the non-acceptance to date by Libya of its responsibilities in these two tragedies, the Government of Canada considers that the draft resolution submitted to the Security Council represents the best course of action for the international community. My Government therefore strongly endorses this draft resolution and urges the Security Council to adopt it.”

2. “In 1989 my delegation was pleased to be involved in the process that led to the adoption by the Security Council of resolution 635 (1989), which condemned all acts of unlawful interference against the security of civil aviation. 'The Council now has the opportunity to build upon its involvement and to make a constructive contribution to bringing such criminal acts to an end. In bilateral contacts, Canada has already underlined the seriousness with which it regards this matter. We have urged Libya to cooperate fully with the British, French and United States Governments in respect.”

3. “Canada is entirely committed to putting an end to all forms of international terrorism. The international community has been for too long the victim of the type of terrorism in which States have been involved directly or indirectly. Addressing this reprehensible activity in a United Nations forum is entirely consistent with the renewed spirit and effectiveness of this Organization. Canada believes that attacks against 'civilian targets are abhorrent threats to international peace and security, and they must be addressed by the international community as a whole. Moreover, the concern of the Security Council in respect of matters of international terrorism is not new.”

4. “May I first of all express to you, Sir, my Gelegation's congratulations on your assumption of the presidency of the Security Council for this month, as well as our appreciation for the excellent manner in which your predecessor, Ambassador Vorontsov, conducted the Council's business during the month of December. I should like to take this opportunity also to express our congratulations to the Secretary-General, Mr. Boutros Boutros Ghali, on his election, and to extend to him the assurances of our full cooperation. Finally, I should like to welcome those States that have just become members of the Security Council this month. Canada is one of the countries which had nationals killed in the destruction of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, on 21 December 1988, and in the bombing of UTA flight 772 over Niger on 19 September 1989.”
