SUMMARY:Event: Nuclear Ban Treaty Entry into Force
DESCRIPTION:Significance\, Implications and Next Steps\n\n\n\nClick on imag
 e to view poster.\nJanuary 22nd 2021 marked a historic milestone for nucle
 ar disarmament as the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) 
 came into force\, officially becoming part of international law. Adopted b
 y 122 states in 2017\, the TPNW began a 90-day countdown to entry into for
 ce last October\, when Honduras became the 50th state to ratify it.\nWhile
  many Canadians are celebrating\, however\, the Canadian government is not
 . As a member of NATO\, Canada continues to view nuclear deterrence as a l
 egitimate security doctrine—and to oppose the TPNW.\nJoin Project Plough
 shares for a discussion on the implications for Canada and the world of th
 e TPNW entry into force.\nJoin the Zoom discussion by clicking here.\nFor
