Accessibility Plan
The purpose of the Accessible Canada Act (ACA) is to make Canada barrier-free by January 1, 2040. As a federally regulated entity, the Atlantic Pilotage Authority (APA) is tasked in identifying, removing, and preventing barriers in the workplace. The ACA and the Accessible Canada Regulations require that federally regulated entities prepare and publish accessibility plan(s), progress reports on the implementation of their plan(s), and descriptions of their feedback processes. As such, the APA is pleased to share our initial plan and future progress reports to meet this requirement and to further our organizational value for providing an inclusive workplace.
To meet our commitment for continuous improvement of inclusion and accessibility, the APA incorporates a feedback process so that employees and external stakeholders may share their ideas with us. To provide feedback on our accessibility plan, please utilize one the contact methods below.

Pilotage & Other Charges
The Pilotage Act requires that pilotage tariffs be fixed at a level that permits the Authority to operate on a self-sustaining financial basis, and that the tariffs set be fair and reasonable. The goal is to have each area become financially self-sufficient to eliminate cross-subsidization among ports.
