Standardization strengthens Canada’s competitiveness and safeguards the health and safety of its citizens. This presentation focuses on three standardization solutions highlighted in the Standards Council of Canada’s recent report, Proposed Standardization Solutions Supporting Oil and Gas Sector Priorities. These solutions aim to address:

  • Disparities among national occupational health and safety standards
  • Pipeline-importing trade flows
