March 17, 2010

APPLICATION by William Tomlinson, pursuant to the Coasting Trade Act, S.C., 1992, c. 31, for a licence.

File No. W9125/O12/10-1


APPLICATION

William Tomlinson applied, through his representative, for a licence to use the "HER WAY", a Turks and Caicos Islands registered luxury yacht, to operate on the St. Lawrence River and Lake Ontario for personal enjoyment and as a venue for business entertainment, commencing on May 15 and ending on October 15, 2010.

ISSUES

Is there a suitable Canadian ship available to provide the service? Is there an identical or similar adequate marine service available from any person operating one or more Canadian ships?

FACTS AND DETERMINATIONS

Canadian Transportation Agency (Agency) staff gave notice of the application to the Canadian marine industry and no Canadian ships were offered. Therefore, the Agency determines that there is no suitable Canadian ship available to provide the service, and that there is no identical or similar adequate marine service available from any person operating one or more Canadian ships.

The Agency is providing these determinations to the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness to consider whether to issue the licence. This Decision is not an authority to operate.
