TDG Training in Northwest Territories
The Northwest Territories' diamond and mineral mining industry, combined with its remote communities that depend on ice road supply chains, makes TDG training critical for northern workers. Dangerous goods — including fuel, explosives for mining, and industrial chemicals — must be transported across vast distances in extreme conditions. Online TDG certification allows NWT workers to train without travelling south.
TDG Regulations in Northwest Territories
The Government of the Northwest Territories' Department of Infrastructure works with Transport Canada on TDG enforcement. Ice road operations carrying fuel and mining supplies have specific safety requirements. All TDG training must meet federal CAN/CGSB-192.3-2020 standards, and the NWT Mine Health and Safety Regulations may impose additional requirements.
