Transport Canada
annual funding of $4.44 million for the motor carrier safety component, allocated to provinces and territories by a costing formula based on population size
The Road Safety Transfer Payment Program funds initiatives that reduce road-related collisions, injuries and fatalities. It has two components: motor carrier safety, which supports the national safety code, and road safety outreach (the enhanced program), which funds projects that create nationally consistent road safety tools. Funding goes to other levels of government and non-governmental organizations.
