What it does
Our Program contributes to an environmentally responsible and resilient national transportation system by ensuring that we: promote the greening of Transport Canada’s operations for owned and operated airports and ports, through the Greening Government Strategy; manage and/or remediate contaminated sites in accordance with applicable legislation and policies, incorporate federal transportation-related expert advice in support of impact assessment processes, and leading Transport Canada’s participation in the Fisheries and Oceans-led Marine Spatial Planning process. Our Program plays an important role in terms of supporting local economic development, health, social and economic impacts on Indigenous groups and communities.
