Canada and International Assistance CGC 1P/D1

What is foreign aid? A country provides financial or other forms of support (ex. equipment or food) to nations in need. This most often occurs between developed nations providing assistance to developing nations. Canadian foreign aid could be for a one-time occurrence (ex. after a disaster), or it could be continual support through an official developmental assistance program (ODA).
