Whereas:

Since early 2023 armed conflict in the Amhara region of Ethiopia has involved Ethiopian government forces carrying out indiscriminate violence and SGBV against civilian populations and infrastructure including through use of aerial strikes leaving more than 4.4 million children out of school and hundreds of thousands displaced

The Ethiopian government has carried out arbitrary detentions and torture of Amhara journalists, civil society leaders, members of parliament and opposition figures

The incumbent Prosperity Party administration won 90% of federal parliament seats in the June 2026 general election despite ongoing armed conflict, mass civilian displacement, suppression of civil society and opposition, and exclusion of major ethnic communities, making conditions for a free and inclusive vote impossible

Canada provided over $147 million in 2024-2025 in development assistance to Ethiopia and maintains significant diplomatic, commercial, and humanitarian interests in the country and the Horn of Africa.
