Overview
The 2021-2022 Departmental Sustainable Development Strategy (DSDS) Progress Report supports the commitment in the Federal Sustainable Development Act to make sustainable development decision-making more transparent and accountable to Parliament. It also contributes to an integrated, whole-of-government view of activities supporting environmental sustainability.
Transport Canada has developed this report to demonstrate progress made in 2021-2022 in implementing its 2020-2023 DSDS.
