Transport Canada provides a wide range of |
|
|
marine safety services to promote safe shipping in |
|
waters off Atlantic Canada. Transport Canada’s Office of |
Boating Safety promotes safe boating for recreational boaters.
Preventing marine pollution and reducing the impact of shipping on the Atlantic Region’s marine environment is a major priority. The department |
|
|
|
|
works with the industry and the public to promote safe marine practices and environmentally friendly operations.
Transport Canada owns and operates a number of ports
in the Atlantic Region. Transport Canada is responsible for the implementation of port security requirements at all ports in Atlantic Canada.
The Navigable Waters Protection Program ensures a balance between the public right of navigation and the need to build works such as bridges, dams or docks for example, in navigable waters.
