Rail regulations in Canada are set by Transport Canada and the Canadian Transportation Agency. The 2007 "Railway Safety Act Review"〔(downloadable PDF copy of the RSA Review )〕 was commissioned by the Minister of Transport〔(Terms of reference of the RSA Review )〕 and its report provides much-needed background to this article, especially section 4.3.〔(Text of section 4.3 of RSA Review )〕 The governance of railways in Canada is complex and has many tiers: Acts of Parliament, Regulations, Rules, and Directives are only some of the instruments that impact this industry. ==Scope== Federal regulations apply only to certain railways which meet one or more of the following conditions: * They operate in more than one province.〔Canadian Transportation Decision No. 33-R-2009 http://www.otc-cta.gc.ca/decision-ruling/decision-ruling.php?id=28134&lang=eng〕 * They operate from the United States and cross the Canada – United States border.〔Section 88 Canada Transportation Act http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-10.4/section-88.html〕 *They are owned, controlled, leased or operated by a person who operates a railway that is within the jurisdiction of parliament.〔 *They are declared by the Canadian Parliament to be a work for the general advantage of Canada or of two or more provinces. A railway that is regulated under either of the two last qualifications is considered to be "a work for the general advantage of Canada."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rail regulations in Canada」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
