The Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA) was established as part of the Government of Canada’s response to the events of September 11, 2001 and is accountable to Parliament through the Minister of Transport. Governed by a Board of Directors, CATSA is a Crown Corporation responsible for securing specific elements of the air transportation system.

CATSA is mandated to protect the public through effective and efficient screening of air travelers and their baggage. CATSA delivers the mandate of security screening at 89 designated airports across the country through a third-party screening contractor model. Playing a key role in Canada’s air transportation system, CATSA is responsible for the delivery of pre-board screening, hold baggage screening, non-passenger screening and restricted area identity card.
