We are inviting stakeholders and the Canadian public to read the proposed changes to the Contraventions Regulations published on the Let’s Talk Transportation website, where feedback can be provided.
Input and comments submitted through the Let’s Talk Transportation website will be recorded and considered in the development of regulations

Key questions for discussion
We have three discussion questions:
