The Canadian Coast Guard is responsible for enforcing Canada's boating laws. The coast guard works to ensure that all boats are operated in a safe and responsible manner, and that all boaters have the necessary skills and knowledge to safely operate their vessels.
The coast guard also responds to marine emergencies, assists in search and rescue operations, and helps to protect the environment. In addition to enforcing boating laws, the coast guard also provides educational materials and programs to help boaters stay safe on the water.
