Government of Canada's agenda to protect our environment and the health of
Canadians and to further our economic prosperity. Various initiatives have
been created under the ecoTRANSPORT strategy which may be of interest to you and

program has been designed to raise awareness among Canadians about advanced
environmental vehicle technologies and their benefits, and to help them make
informed decisions about purchasing vehicles that use clean technologies.
