Abstract	After the end of the Cold War, in which there was a merger of development and security concerns, Canada was a leading proponent of concepts such as peacebuilding and human security. In this changing global strategic environment, the Canadian government and likeminded states stressed the threat to individuals and communities of underdevelopment and conflict. Documents as far back as the Supplement to an Agenda for Peace (BoutrosGhali1995) and UNGA Resolution 51/45 (1996) made the link between small arms, security, and development, while introducing the concept of micro-disarmament. The 2001 United Nations Programme of Action (PoA) to Prevent, Combat and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in All Its Aspects recognized in its preamble “the implications that poverty and underdevelopment may have for the illicit trade in small arms” and “that the illicit trade in small arms...in all its aspects is multi-faceted and involves, inter alia, security, conflict prevention, and resolution, crime prevention, humanitarian, health and development dimensions.” The PoA was recognized for its attempts to restrict the supply of small arms in circulation by addressing issues of manufacturing, tracing, trafficking, brokering, trading, financing of weapons, as well as their collection and destruction.
