Whereas in and by subsection 2(3) of the Carriage by Air Act, being chapter C-14 of the Revised Statutes of Canada, 1970, it is provided that the Governor in Council may from time to time by proclamation published in the Canada Gazette certify who are the High Contracting Parties to the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air signed at Warsaw on October 12, 1929, in respect of what territories they are respectively parties, to what extent they have availed themselves of the Additional Protocol to the said Convention and who are the parties to the Protocol set out in Schedule III to the said Act.

Now Know You that We, by and with the advice of Our Privy Council for Canada, do by this Our Proclamation certify that
