NAV CANADA plays a unique and critical role managing the 18 million square kilometres of Canadian civil airspace and the North Atlantic oceanic airspace under Canada’s control.​​ Since NAV CANADA was founded in 1996, safety has been our top priority. We work with aviation stakeholders and partners to identify and manage risks, develop new standards and tools, and build a company-wide culture of safety. Canada was the first country in the world to privatize its civil air navigation system, and we remain one of the few fully private companies in the world wholly responsible for air traffic control, flight information and other aeronautical services. As a not-for-profit corporation, we invest directly in our operations, people and infrastructure to keep Canada’s air navigation system as safe, efficient and innovative as it can be.

It is recognized internationally for its safety record, service excellence and technology innovation, and is a proud partner of the global air transportation industry.
