The Governing Statutes
|
In the 1980’s, legislation governing the transportation of dangerous goods was developed by the Canadian government to improve environmental safety and to provide a uniform system across Canada for the transportation of these goods. The legislation concerning the transportation of dangerous goods consists of two elements - the Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) Act and the supporting Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations. The Act and Regulations provide a framework for the TDG system that includes and clearly outlines the responsibilities of all parties involved in this process. |
