Canadian Transport Commission

The Canadian Transport Commission (CTC) was an independent agency established in 1967 to regulate and oversee transportation in Canada, including railways, airlines, and marine transportation. Its main roles included ensuring fair competition, protecting consumers, and maintaining safety standards. The CTC aimed to foster a robust transportation system that balanced the needs of the industry and the public. In 2001, the CTC was replaced by the Canadian Transportation Agency (CTA), which continues to carry out these regulatory functions in the transportation sector, focusing on accessibility, efficiency, and service quality for Canadians.
