In light of the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, the 2021 Mariners’ Workshop event will be held remotely and offered at no charge to participants on January 27 and 28, 2021. The goal is to encourage a dialogue among mariners as well as provide an opportunity to interact with manufacturers, service providers, regulators and other stakeholders. The primary focus of the 2021 workshop is the continuous modernization of Canadian waterways supported by e-Navigation.
