VANCOUVER, Jan 8 (BNBC) -- It has been learned that Canada's participation
at the Interpol conference is currently under review by the Solicitor
General who is responsible for the country's war against narcotic drugs.  

There is concern that Canadian participation in the conference would
suggest a change in Canada's policy towards the regime in Rangoon.  Canada
has consistently maintained a position of strong condemnation of the
Burmese junta's human rights record and its refusal to honour the results
of the 1990 democratic elections in the country.
