Tr ansport Canada, like other federal departments, is required to prepare a
sustainable development strategy (SDS) every three years. On February 16, 2004, the department's third strategy
- Sustainable Development Strategy 2004-2006
was tabled in Parliament.
The first strategy provided a sound foundation
for integrating environmental considerations into the work of the
department.
 |
In the second strategy, Transport Canada
adopted a set of sustainable development principles and made specific
commitments to action.
The third strategy brings more precision to the concept of
sustainability, and defines seven challenges and 32 specific commitments
for the next three years.
|
The third strategy reflects the outcomes of cross-Canada consultations
with a broad range of transportation stakeholders.
