Every Canadian air operator must have a Dangerous Goods Specific Approval on their AOC. WJR Aero TDG builds the complete compliance program your certificate requires — from your Company Operations Manual to your crew training — for CARs 702, 703, and 704 operators, aligned with Transport Canada AC 700-001 Issue 07.
Whether you know it or not. Passenger baggage alone — laptops, batteries, lighters, aerosols — makes every flight a TDG event. Transport Canada requires all Part VII operators to be compliant.
Under AC 700-001 Issue 07, all commercial air operators under CARs Subparts 702, 703, 704 and 705 must hold a Dangerous Goods Specific Approval on their Air Operator Certificate. WJR Aero TDG specializes in supporting 702, 703, and 704 operators — where hands-on, practical compliance support makes the biggest difference.
Transport Canada requires that your dangerous goods policies, procedures, and training programs be documented in your Company Operations Manual and submitted for approval. Without it, your COM is incomplete and your AOC is at risk.
Even operators who carry no cargo must maintain a TDG program. Your passengers carry dangerous goods on every flight — batteries, fuel, compressed gas, medications. Your crew must know how to handle them safely and correctly.
Rather than embedding TDG requirements inside your COM, WJR builds a dedicated TDG Manual that your COM simply references. When regulations change, amending a standalone TDG Manual costs significantly less than a formal COM amendment — saving you time and money every time Transport Canada updates its requirements.
Transport Canada inspectors verify TDG compliance during routine surveillance. An incomplete or outdated program can result in corrective action requirements, AOC conditions, or worse. WJR Aero TDG keeps you inspection-ready.
Transport Canada designates every air operator as either "YES" or "NO" on their AOC — both require a complete TDG program. Which one are you?
Your operation requires the most comprehensive TDG program. You need complete cargo acceptance procedures, shipper declaration handling, dangerous goods manifest processes, and fully trained acceptance staff.
WJR Aero TDG builds your complete program — COM sections, training modules, staff certification, and all documentation required for TC approval and ongoing compliance.
Don't be misled by the "NO" designation — you still require a complete TDG program. Your crew must receive awareness training, your COM must address passenger baggage dangerous goods, and your approval must be in place on your AOC.
This is WJR Aero TDG's primary focus — serving CARs 702 and 703 operators, and select 704 operators, who often carry a "NO" designation and underestimate the full scope of their TDG obligations under AC 700-001.
A complete, TC-aligned TDG compliance package — built for your specific operation, your CARs subpart, and your AOC requirements.
WJR builds your TDG compliance documentation two ways: as a standalone TDG Manual referenced by your COM, or as integrated COM sections. The standalone manual is the smarter choice for most operators — amendments are faster and significantly less costly than a formal COM amendment every time regulations change.
Structured awareness training program for flight crew and cabin crew covering dangerous goods in passenger and crew baggage — what to look for, how to respond, and what to document.
For YES-designated operators: complete shipper training, acceptance staff certification programs, and the examinations required to demonstrate TDG Regulations compliance.
Compliance-ready training record systems and tracking tools — ensuring your team's TDG currency is documented, up to date, and ready for a TC surveillance visit at any time.
Guidance through the Transport Canada Form 16-0090 review and approval process — including liaising with the TCCA TDG Program on your behalf to get your SA confirmed on your AOC.
As regulations evolve, your TDG program must keep pace. WJR Aero TDG offers ongoing review and update services to keep your COM sections and training current with every AC revision.
