Canada

Taken from curatorial worksheet: This watch was given to Prime Minister Stephen Harper by President Leuthard of Switzerland at the Francophonie Summit in 2010. Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada notes on its website that, “In addition to the Montreux Declaration, the Summit passed eight resolutions on the following themes: 1) piracy; 2) counterfeit or expired pharmaceuticals; 3) transborder crime in Africa; 4) terrorism; 5) flood-affected countries; 6) the reconstruction of Haiti; 7) countries in crisis, crisis recovery and peacebuilding; and finally, 8) the 10th anniversary of the Bamako Declaration, entrenching the political role of La Francophonie. The Summit confirmed the re election of Secretary General Abdou Diouf for a third four year term.” (ref.2) Canada has a long-standing history of involvement in La Francophonie as it was one for the first countries to actively participate in the creation and development of its institutions. Canada has also hosted the Francophone Summit on three occasions: Quebec City (1987), Moncton (1999) and again in Quebec City (2008). “Canada’s involvement in La Francophonie highlights the country’s linguistic duality and its attachment to the shared values of La Francophonie.” (ref.3)

Fonction

Used to store the wrist watch.

Technique

Taken from curatorial worksheet: An automatic is a mechanical watch in which the mainspring is wound automatically as a result of natural motion of the wearer's arm, to provide energy to run the watch, making manual winding unnecessary.
