The Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) is an independent
body whose mandate is to advance safety in marine, pipeline, rail
and aviation modes of transportation. TSB fulfills its mandate by :
-
conducting independent investigations including, when necessary, public
inquiries into selected transportation occurrences in order to make findings as to
their causes and contributing factors;
-
identifying safety deficiencies as evidenced by transportation occurrences;
-
making recommendations designed to eliminate or reduce safety deficiencies; and
-
reporting publicly on its investigations and on the findings in relation thereto.
The TSB reports to Parliament through the President of the Queen's Privy Council for
Canada.

TSB recommendations are submitted to the Minister of Transport Canada, who then
