Intentionally interfering with the performance of flight crew to perform their duties is also a criminal offence. An example of such an offence would be intentionally shining a laser at an aircraft, which distracts a pilot and interferes with his or her ability to safely land the aircraft. Offenders will be charged under the Aeronautics Act.

The safety measure affects hand-held lasers of over 1 mW in power. These lasers may look like pens or flashlights. Often, people use them when giving a lecture or presentation.

Transport Canada has put in place permanent regulations to protect Canadians from laser attacks on aircraft. Find out where the safety measure is in effect and if it affects you.

Law enforcement agencies will be trained to know when and where people may possess a laser. They will exercise their discretion and judgement when determining whether or not to issue a fine.

Shining a bright light (such as a hand-laser) into airspace is now a designated provision, which means a law enforcement officer can issue you a fine under the Contravention Regulations or a monetary penalty on the spot. The fines are the same as for those possessing a hand-held laser where you shouldn’t be.

If you receive a fine for an offence under the safety measure, you may choose to pay the amount of the fine or file a written request for an appeal with the Transportation Appeal Tribunal of Canada or at the respective provincial court.

Aiming a laser at an aircraft is not a bright idea. It’s a federal offence. Laser attacks can temporarily blind the pilot, putting all the people on board the aircraft at serious risk. In 2019, there were nearly 250 reported laser strikes on aircraft in Canada.

If you are also convicted of intentionally interfering with an aircraft by using a laser, you could face one or both of:

Incidents of lasers aimed at aircraft continue to threaten aviation safety in Canada.   In Canada, there were 1,965 laser attacks reported to Transport Canada and published in the Civil Aviation Daily Occurrence Reporting System (CADORS) between January 2015 and the end of December 2019. It’s a disturbing statistic—it means the safety of pilots, crew and passengers was put at risk during each laser attack.

Use the map to learn where the new safety measure is in effect. If you plan on using your laser outside, such as in a park, be sure to check out the map before you go.

You don’t want to be caught in possession of a laser where you shouldn’t be. As well, you certainly don’t want to be caught aiming one at an aircraft. If you’re caught, law enforcement can issue you a fine on the spot.

Lasers are often used in astronomy to point at stars or sky features. If you plan on aiming a laser into navigable airspace, you must get permission from Transport Canada.
