Transport Canada Digital Signature Pilots - Pilotes de signatures numérique à Transports Canada

Introduction to Digital Signatures

As part of Transport Canada's Digital Transformation, we have set out to create a modern, inclusive workforce that concentrates on four aspects: People, Culture, Tools and Workplace.

Digital Signatures is a priority within the larger objective of a paperless (or less-paper) workplace that is greener and sustainable for the environment. Transport Canada's strategy for the adoption of digital signatures is focused on transforming end-to-end business processes as opposed to replacing wet signatures by digital equivalents.

Three main questions are asked to business process or form owner that wishes to adopt digital signatures:

1. Do you have the legal authority to ask for a digital signature?
2. What is your process or form's level of assurance?
3. Does the signature add any value to the process or can another action undertaken by the user be considered as equivalent to the signature?

In the section below, employees will be able to find guidance and documentation for Digital Signatures at Transport Canada.
