Summary

Environment Canada is the source of much of the weather information that NAV CANADA, a private corporation, delivers through its network of flight service stations, including all Canadian aviation forecasts.

These services are provided according to national and international standards and the requirements of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

Environment Canada also prepares and delivers specialized aviation weather services to aviation clients, which go beyond the basic services provided by NAV CANADA, on a cost-recovery basis.
