SUBJECT: CANADA SHARES USG VIEWS ON ZIMBABWE VOTE IN IMF

REF: SECSTATE 163126

Classified By: Classified by Curtis Stone, ESTH Counselor, Ottawa. Rea
son: 1.4(b) and (d).

(C) Canada's Department of Finance shares the USG's views on
Zimbabwe in the IMF and, as things stand, plans to instruct
its director to vote to expel Zimbabwe from the Board.
Although the GOC feels that the partial payment has not made
a material difference and that there has been enough
forbearance, they note that Canadian officials do value their
relationship with South African Finance Minister Trevor
Manual, and further appeals from South Africa might weigh
more heavily with Canada than they do with the US.
