Significant decline in TDG incidents over the last 10 years
(From ~31 per year to ~15 per year)
So...
If incidents are more likely to occur at a location, rather than along the transportation route, and if the number of incidents are trending down …
…why are we here today?
CHEMISTRY INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION OF CANADA
We are here because…
• Of our concern for your community safety and security, and
• We need and rely upon safe and efficient transportation to receive raw materials and to ship products to customers in North America and exports to global markets
