Which organization collaborates with Transport Canada on TDG?

The United Nations plays a significant role in collaborating with Transport Canada on the Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) regulations. The UN is involved in formulating international conventions, guidelines, and model regulations which many countries, including Canada, adopt and adapt to their own transportation systems.

One of the critical aspects of this collaboration is the UN's work through its Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods. This committee develops unified regulations to promote the safe and efficient transport of dangerous goods across international borders, ensuring that countries comply with consistent standards that enhance safety and environmental protection.

This cooperation helps Canada align its regulations with international standards, facilitating trade and ensuring safety in the transport of dangerous goods on a global scale. The influence of the UN ensures that Canada's TDG framework remains current with best practices and international safety standards.
