Government of Canada increases marine shipping penalties to a maximum of $250,000 per violation

From: Transport Canada

News release

Today, the Minister of Transport, Pablo Rodriguez, announced that the value of monetary penalties for violations under the Canada Shipping Act, 2001 has been increased from a maximum of $25,000 to a new maximum of $250,000.

April 15, 2024           Ottawa, Ontario           Transport Canada

As a maritime nation, Canadians across the country rely on marine shipping to deliver goods in a safe and efficient way. Whether it’s new or improved legislation, scientific research, jobs or targeted investments in training, infrastructure and equipment, the Oceans Protection Plan is making shipping safer, and making a difference across the country.

The revised penalties are structured into three levels: minor, medium, and serious and reflect the seriousness of the violation. Minor violations are administrative in nature and pose no threat to public safety or the environment; medium violations apply to situations when regulations around pollution response are not followed, but may not pose a large threat to people or the environment; and serious violations are those that endanger human health or the environment, or involve destroying documents or obstruction of authority.

Examples of minor violations include:

• a Master of a vessel failing to notify the Minister of Transport prior to entering a shipping safety control zone
• vessels carrying dangerous goods not holding the appropriate Document of Compliance

Examples of medium violations include:

• cheating on an examination to obtain a maritime document
• a person possessing a maritime document not issued to them

Examples of serious violations include:

• not storing compressed gas in separate compartments from other types of compressed gas
• discharging of cargo residues in polar waters in certain conditions

The Oceans Protection Plan is a Canadian success story. When Indigenous Peoples, industry, communities, scientists, and government work together to protect our people and environment, grow our economy, and support good jobs across the country, we deliver real results.

“We’re serious about the safety of our waters and the well-being of Canadians, and that’s why we’re introducing these amendments and raising the maximum penalty. This is another step we’re taking through Canada’s Oceans Protection Plan to make sure our coasts and waterways are safe for generations to come." The Honourable Pablo Rodriguez Minister of Transport

Quick facts

The Canada Shipping Act, 2001 , enables the use of administrative monetary penalties up to $250,000 to enforce the Act and its regulations. The Administrative Monetary Penalties and Notices (CSA 2001) Regulations (AMPNR) designate specific provisions of the Act and its regulations as violations subject to monetary penalties and sets the penalty range for each violation.

The previous maximum of $25,000 per violation was set in 2008. The new maximum penalty amount is the result of approved legislative amendments to the Administrative Monetary Penalties and Notices (CSA 2001) Regulations . This new maximum reflects the Government of Canada’s ongoing efforts to strengthen Canada’s marine safety system by deterring lawbreakers.

Transport Canada constantly inspects and monitors the marine shipping industry and activities to ensure that the regulations are being followed and takes action if there is non-compliance. These regulatory amendments strengthen administrative monetary penalties, which are a key tool in Transport Canada’s enforcement toolbox . Other enforcement tools include written warnings, canceling or suspending licences and permits, and pursuing criminal prosecution.

These penalties are distinct from criminal prosecution, which are used to address the most serious cases of non-compliance and can result in a fine of up to $1 million and/or imprisonment of up to 18 months.

Maritime Travel

902-543-2481.

Maritime Travel Inc. began with a single storefront, called Maritime Travel, in 1949. Since then, we've become the largest independent travel agency in Canada. Today, our retail operations consist of over 115 locations from coast to coast with 18 locations branded LeGrow's Travel in Newfoundland and Labrador, several branded Voyages Maritime in Quebec and Northern New Brunswick and the remainder branded Maritime Travel right across the country. Combined, our retail operations generate annual sales of over $350 million and employ over 500 people.

On May 16, 2002, we changed our name from Maritime Marlin Travel to Maritime Travel. When we originally affiliated with Marlin Travel in 1986 to provide our customers with a national network, we gained the ability to use the "Marlin" name within Atlantic Canada. This affiliation served us well for many years. However, with our acquisition of The Bay Travel in 2002, now Maritime Travel @ the Bay giving us locations nationwide, we no longer needed this affiliation to meet customers' needs across Canada. Maritime Travel better reflects who we are - a Maritime-owned and headquartered company with a truly national reach.  In December 2009, the company hired 36 senior travel counsellors who had been with BCAA travel prior to BCAA closing its travel operations.  Between 2009 and 2013, there were numerous acquisitions in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario, including ATCO Travel in the fall of 2010. Maritime Travel Inc. is also committed to staying one step ahead of our competition in the ever-changing travel industry. We believe that good people are particularly critical to our ongoing success. Hiring the best staff and providing them with attractive compensation packages and benefits has helped us to build and maintain a highly educated and experienced team of experts. In fact, many of our staff have been with us for over 10 years. Maritime Travel Inc. also provides extensive training programs for all our staff, and we continuously invest in leading-edge technology to stay competitive. Many of the technology solutions we have incorporated have had a significant impact on all aspects of our service, from operational efficiencies in the retail shops to innovative solutions for our business travelers, like online booking tools. Recognized for its leadership and employee satisfaction, Maritime Travel Inc. was named as one of the Best Companies to Work for in Canada for 3 consecutive years by Globe and Mail's Report on Business Magazine and one of the Best Companies to work for by Aon Hewitt for 4 consecutive years.  Maritime Travel has been recognized as one of Canada's Best Managed Companies for 19 consecutive years, achieving platinum status the past 14 years.

Maritime Travel Inc. is a fully integrated travel company specializing in all aspects of travel, including developing, packaging, marketing, and distributing travel products and services. Air Charters Operating since 1999, Maritime Travel Air Charters offers a convenient, often cost-efficient charter service for our clients. This gives our clients -- with two or more persons traveling -- significant opportunities to save money and time, all with the added freedom of flying on their own schedule.

Air Consolidation Launched in 1999, Discount Air serves as an internal consolidator for our retail network, sourcing international fares that are far more competitive than scheduled fares. This means huge savings for our customers. Sourcing and negotiating the availability of attractive fares is the greatest challenge faced by most agents. By providing an in-house service with fares online, Maritime Travel Inc.'s retail operations enjoy a significant competitive advantage. Business Travel Management Maritime Travel Inc.'s Business Travel Management operations offer business travel services and products to companies of all sizes. Operating under the Maritime and LeGrow's brands, we service over 25 per cent of all business travel accounts in Atlantic Canada. Our leading-edge e-commerce Travel Smart Suite of products and "Confirmed" Business Travel Program are two of the many exclusive services we offer our customers. Inbound Services Atlantic Cruise Ship Services began as a small ground-handling company, servicing cruise ships arriving at Cape Breton Island. Today, Atlantic Cruise Ship Services has expanded its service throughout Atlantic Canada, providing ground-handling services for companies such as Holland America and Princess Cruises, among others. Maritime Travel Conventions Maritime Travel purchased Convention Connections, now known as Maritime Travel Conventions, as part of the acquisition of Atlantic American Express operations in November of 2005. This division has been in business for ten years, coordinating inbound convention services for organizations around the world. The services include negotiating and managing hotel room blocks as well as coordinating flights and event planning. Meetings and Incentives Maritime Travel Meetings & Incentives provides organizations with professional consulting and coordination of meetings, conventions and incentive programs. Companies face continuous operational challenges, such as building and maintaining moral, keeping staff turnover down and motivating their teams, all of which can be addressed with a well-planned and executed incentive program. The Maritime Meetings & Incentives team has broad expertise in developing meetings and incentive programs, from delivering client incentive trips hosted by our own president to developing incentives that can be driven or serviced from our regional branch network. Retail Travel Maritime Travel Inc. operates over 110 retail locations across the country, under the brands, Maritime Travel, LeGrow's Travel, Airline Reservation Center, and Maritime Travel at The Bay. Our retail operations offer vacation travel services and products through all three distribution channels: travel agencies, a national call center and Internet sites. Our size and market share have allowed us to develop exclusive products and services, such as our Maritime Travel Insurance and Exclusive Payment Options. Wholesale Operations Launched in 1999, Holiday Escapes (formerly Maritime Holidays) continues to expand its programs and destinations. Holiday Escapes has made considerable investments in software that allows our agents to book online while giving our branch network access to products that sometimes are exclusive, yet always the best price for our customers.
