Transport committee  We are trying to promote careers at sea. Practices are changing in the way ships are managed. For example, there are contracts and shorter crew rotations so that people can go home more often. We think it's important to promote careers at sea and present them as a good option. I

Transport committee  Yes. We supported that recommendation because our belief is that all safety and incident response issues should be based on risk analysis anyway. We have no objection to the expert panel's recommendation, especially since the type of traffic can change. There are oil tankers in

Transport committee  I know that all the MOUs issue an annual report, so they have an annual general meeting, should I say, but my understanding is that there are more frequent specialized or technical meetings. It's a network. It's something where people are connected to each other on a constant bas

Transport committee  Well, I don't know what you mean by liability. I think the first-party liability regime when you have a victim, for example, because there was a spill and there was pollution, is encompassed by international conventions that are brought into Canadian law via the Marine Liability

Transport committee  These are organizations where all the states that are parties to these MOUs meet regularly. Probably Transport Canada would be better to explain how it works internally, but the way that we understand it by reading their reports, for example, is that they have regular meetings.

Transport committee  It's good. A key element was when the port state control regime came out about 20 years or so ago. It's been a very big driver of improvement in the quality of ships and the elimination of substandard shipping. The last data published on Transport Canada's website, for example, s

Transport committee  Well, we deal only with international vessels. All our ships are under foreign flags, so we haven't taken any position on whether Canada should do the same thing for all their domestic ships, whatever the type. Of course, the safety of each user of the waterways is somehow the sa

Transport committee  I will have to double check where we are in terms of oil trends. From the top of my memory, I would say it's pretty stable as far as Canada is concerned, in terms of volume. We may have changes in traffic, depending on whether we import or export more. I can do an update on that

Anne Legars

Transport committee  Yes, I understand what you're saying. I have two things to raise. The first one is that enforcement is a collective game in terms of ocean shipping. Under these MOUs all the countries that are part of the MOUs have a certain target to reach. I don't know if I remember, but I thi
