Canadian drone law

[warden082]

For the purpose of the legislation at hand, the fact that an aircraft could land somewhere is irrelevant. The only locations that matter are those listed/registered in the NAVCANADA Canada Flight Supplement and/or Canada Water Aerodrome Supplement.

Actually, the definition goes beyond whats listed in the CFS:

aerodrome means any area of land, water (including the frozen surface thereof) or other supporting surface used, designed, prepared, equipped or set apart for use either in whole or in part for the arrival, departure, movement or servicing of aircraft and includes any buildings, installations and equipment situated thereon or associated therewith; (aérodrome)

This is straight from the Aeronautics Act. As you can see, there is nothing that references "registered with the CFS"

I just published a new EDITED SUMMARY of the latest EXEMPTION for flying UAVs commercially
Simple language for easy understanding. Use it with reference to the NRC Restricted Zones Map

Alberta parks = no take off/landing, just like National Parks. Try and find it on the web - almost impossible. However I have been assured by them that it does exist in writing, somewhere.

hello!

this article might help.

I was talking to the admin of a tour group in alberta and he sent me this link for reference when I asked about drone laws.
