Text and language scope
The original prints German, English and French treaty and integral protocol texts in three columns. All three authentic treaty-language transcriptions are supplied here; R3 omitted French. This is NOT a full-language accuracy/completeness certification. Physical PDF page 38 is a separate German-only competent-authority agreement dated 19/20 April 2001, not an amendment or translated treaty text. No English/French version of that supplement is supplied or invented. Signature 2001-04-19 differs from edition ID/publication year 2002. No qualified human wording review, legal review, current-law or publication approval. Unreviewed coordinate-based machine transcription of this original source edition only. Printed line breaks, hyphens and uncertain token spacing are retained, not silently corrected. Treaty preamble, closing formula, protocol and shared signatures are separate retained assets, not part of the last article. Full supplements: /review/de-canada-2002-base/. PDF page links identify pages, not verified paragraph correspondence.
