The Canadian Transportation Agency acts as an economic regulator for certain marine activities. Through its powers and often in response to an objection, the Agency determines whether tariffs, tolls and fees are unjust, unreasonable, discriminatory or prejudicial to the public interest. The Agency also deals with the Coasting Trade Act which is designed to protect the interests of Canadian vessel operators when dealing with applications to use foreign or non-duty paid ships in Canada, while allowing foreign equipment to be used when there are no suitable and/or available Canadian ships.
