|A plan to address Canada-specific data gaps on residue left over from drone-based pesticide application
|AAFC will lead a study to compare pesticide residue levels on crops applied using drones to traditional equipment that are approved for pesticide application. The results of the study will help determine the regulatory equivalency of drone-based applications to ground based and airplane-based applications to inform future regulatory decision-making.

|Improving and Streamlining Electronic reporting  of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) (ECCC and Provincial Partners)
|This project proposed by TC aims to identify and leverage best practices from other jurisdictions such as the US and Europe to improve aviation requirements where the operational capabilities of Canadian air operators could be safely expanded in winter conditions to increase international alignment and competitiveness. This includes improving TC’s regulatory guidance through an informed and data-driven policy.

|The  Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment agreed to work to minimize  duplication and reduce the reporting burden for industry and governments.  ECCC, with 6 other provinces, designed three interconnected reporting  applications to collect this information in 2011. ECCC is aiming to reduce  reporting burden on industries and enhance user experience by consolidating  the three GHG reporting applications into one, implementing a user-centric  design, features and up-to-date technology.

|Access Consortium - Multinational Real-time  collaboration for Health Regulators
 +
|As  part of the Access Consortium Project, 5 countries - Australia, Canada,  Singapore, Switzerland and United Kingdom review drug applications  independently, and share files to collaborate. As regulators are repeating  others’ work and due to differences in cloud policies of every country, this  is done in a nonsynchronous way at this time. HC is aiming to further develop  a proof-of-concept prototype that will allow all five international partners  to collaborate and share information in a secure manner real-time.

|Health  Canada is aiming to facilitate the preparation of additionally robust and  defensible cost-benefit analysis. The project seeks to maximize its insights  into material impacts on subsectors of HC’s industrial stakeholders by fully  leveraging StatsCan’s Business Registry and developing a data collection tool  (survey) to fill gaps in information that are identified as still outstanding.

|Willingness to Pay framework
 +
|HC proposes  to develop a framework by which to obtain the costs of collection of  Canadian’s willingness to pay for the benefits of regulations to obtain  additional valuable data for cost-benefit analysis. In preparing complex  regulations it is often easier to collect and monetize the costs to regulated  parties than the benefits to the public.

|Capacity building for the Impact Assessment  Agency of Canada through practical experience in identifying the costs and  benefits of regulations, including the Cost Recovery Regulations
 +
|IAAC  proposes to utilize an experienced senior analyst to conduct an effective cost  benefit analysis as part of the development of Cost Recovery Regulations. The  resource would involve and train ~ three IAAC staff from the Legislative and Regulatory Affairs Division while the CBA is being conducted. This will allow  agency staff to learn how to conduct CBAs for future regulatory initiatives  as well as those currently underway.

|Building a Canadian Framework for Vehicle Cyber  Security Requirements to Support Alignment with International Regulations
 +
|TC is aiming to  develop a vehicle cyber security certification framework to support industry  in demonstrating compliance with vehicle technical requirements that is  aligned internationally. Compared to Europe and Asia, the US and Canada have  a self-certification model and deeply integrated of supply chains. As TC does  not have dedicated vehicle cyber security authorities, a framework will help  with future regulatory decision-making process.

|Road Safety and Vehicle Regulations
 +
|TC is proposing a  pilot study to demonstrate and validate a new approach using virtual test  platforms required for motor vehicle safety oversight. As Automated Driving  Systems vehicles are evolving from traditional mechanical systems to software  centric platforms, novel approaches to safety oversight are required. Starting  with the digitalization of real-world driving environments, computer  simulation test tools for automated vehicles will be examined to verify the  accuracy of manufacturer’s test results for regulatory decision-making  purposes.
