The paper traces the development of the approach to airworthiness taken by Canadian government authorities from its origin through to current practices. It describes the Aerospace industry, the carriers and general aviation in statistical terms, indicates the impact of economic regulatory reform and suggests the way ahead for Canadian and other authorities lies in the attitude and methodologies practiced by the European authorities in their development of JARs.I SHOULD PERHAPS start this presentation with a short word about authorities. At the conclusion of a speech on safety regulation by Mr. Ronald Ashford of the UK Civil Aviation Authority, reported in Flight International of April 19, 1986, the following quotation from St. Paul to the Romans appeared:“You wish to have no fear of the authorities? Then continue to do right and you will have their approval, for they are God's agents working for your good”. Aprocryphal or not, this would appear to give some divine authority for our regulatory activities.
