Print this Article | Send to Colleague

The Regulations Amending the Canadian Aviation Regulations (Designated Provisions — Projection of Directed Bright Light Source at an Aircraft) came into force on June 22, 2018 and can be found here. These amendments designate offences under section 601.20 and subsection 601.21(1) of the CARs, to enable the issuance of administrative monetary penalties (AMPs) for enforcement purposes, up to a maximum of $5,000 for an individual and $25,000 for a corporation. The designation of these provisions in the CARs enables immediate enforcement for laser attack offences through the issuance of AMPs.
