FAR 91 Operators May Fly in Canada Without Special Authority | NBAA - National Business Aviation Association

TATC, in the initial review hearing, agreed with industry’s long held viewpoints on utilization of Part 91 aircraft. Subsequent appeals resulted in the federal court redirecting the matter back to TATC for a redetermination, and supported the test provided by the original review decision.
The CTA, not desiring direction from TATC, issued a reversal decision removing the violation on the Part 91 operator, and setting forth criteria where air services may be deemed publicly available. These are as follows:
We continue in our advice to Part 91 operators that all operations be declared as private without elaboration. There are many allowances to Part 91 operators under 14 CFR §91.501, (time shares, interchange, joint ownership, flight expenses, etc.) which the rest of the aviation world, and specifically Canada, would deem to be commercial operations. As home country allowances prevail in foreign operations, Part 91 operators will reduce their problems on entry to Canada and other countries, by merely confirming the private operation factor, without detailing any of the commercial relationships which may be occurring on that particular operation.
