Nav Canada has initiated a study to evaluate the requirements for extending the use of ADS-B in Canadian airspace below 12,500 feet msl and above FL600. Included in the study’s scope: evaluate whether requiring ADS-B Out in low-level controlled airspace is operationally and technically justified; assess the impacts to airspace users, including the challenges for non-equipped aircraft to access ADS-B airspace; review options for targeted ADS-B requirement in selected Class D and E airspace; consider stakeholder perspectives—particularly those of smaller commercial and general aviation operators—with respect to the requirement for antenna diversity, technical feasibility, and operational impacts; and define implementation timelines for previously approved high-level airspace. Comments are due by&nbsp;Feb. 9, 2026.
