Dear friends and colleagues,

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the third Congress of the Canadian Marine Pilots’ Association . the Congress is being held in one of Canada’s most important and historic maritime cities; a very appropriate location for marine stakeholders to exchange views, ideas and experiences .

We are delighted to have so many respected panelists to share their perspectives on topics important to marine transportation and we hope that you will make the most of this opportunity to participate in the discussions and to establish or renew connections with others in the marine community .

On behalf of everyone involved, we wish you an enjoyable time at the conference .

Andrew rae, Vice-president, Atlantic Canadian Marine Pilots’ Association Chair, Host Committee

simon Pelletier, President Canadian Marine Pilots’ Association Chair, 3rd CMPA Congress


WorDs of WelCoMe 7..

On behalf of the Government of Canada, I extend my warmest greetings to the organizers and delegates of the third Congress of the Canadian Marine Pilots’ Association . the Atlantic region has been a vital gateway to north America for over 400 years . throughout our history, it has played a major role in connecting Canadians to other cultures and to our trading partners . It seems only fitting that this congress should be held here in Halifax — one of the oldest and most beautiful port cities on our east coast .

the Government of Canada’s vision is to have a transportation system in this

country that is recognized around the world as safe and secure, efficient and environmentally responsible . We are working on many fronts to achieve this . As one example, we have just passed the Regulations Amending the Great lakes Pilotage Regulations . this new regime will put an end to pilotage exemptions for Canadian-flagged ships on the Great lakes . the work of many stakeholders, including delegates to this congress, helped resolve this long-standing issue, and I thank all those involved for their contribution .

I know that Canada’s marine pilots share our government’s vision of creating and maintaining a transportation system that is second to none . I am confident that your discussions here will serve to advance that vision . the theme of your deliberations — Beyond the Bridge: Pilots in the larger World — also serves to remind us all that marine pilots contribute to their communities in many ways . the Canadian Marine Pilots’ Association has done much over the years to further public safety, protect the environment and contribute to the overall success of our marine sector, and I am certain your work at this congress will uphold that tradition .

sincerely,

The Honourable Denis lebel Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities


8.. WorDs of WelCoMe
