In the first 4 months of 2015 Transport Canada issued 1,600 permits for commercial drones. In contrast, the U.S.’s Federal Aviation Administration issued only 69. Over 110 companies in Canada now provide commercial drone services, which are regularly used by the movie and television industry, oil and gas companies, forestry companies and farmers.

Yes if it were used for commercial film and photography and services like search and rescue. There is enough advertising plugging up everything around us. We don’t need drones following us around trying to sell something
@9FPG8CX2yrs2Y
Yes, but make sure that won't harm others.
@9F3N3RC2yrs2Y
not really important, no opinion
@9F6YRJ82yrs2Y
For only some things but not everything
@96G92DC3yrs3Y
as long as they can be regulated for ONLY commercial use
@95LYKCHRhinoceros3yrs3Y
@95LYHZ23yrs3Y
only to film commercials
@933LMPX3yrs3Y
Case by case basis. Drones should be by permit and case by case basis. Possibly with a regulatory course on permitted usage and rights and freedoms.
@8Y8PJZR3yrs3Y
within reason yes and no
@8VQDNBNConservative4yrs4Y
Yes With adequate regulations so as to not interfere with aircraft.
@8VF8YNL4yrs4Y
Yes but only if regulated
@8V92GSWConservative4yrs4Y
what kind of job is it is the job important
@8SZHK4Z4yrs4Y
Yes, but strict regulations for flying near or over private property, or quality of camera equipped.
@8PDK59S4yrs4Y
for forestry, lost kids, and police usage
@8JJ33234yrs4Y
depends on what the use is for
@98KGHGHNew Democratic2yrs2Y
It depends on the type of commercial purpose. Surveyors and construction might benefit but do we need drone delivered pizza?
@8VFDS8C4yrs4Y
yes but with certain rules
@3FBK4X94yrs4Y
For delivery, research of difficult geographical areas, making movies etc. yes. For spying and collecting data for the use in marketing campaigns, NO. So I guess yes but very strictly regulated.
@2D8FWFZ4yrs4Y
As long as they do not endanger any flight paths.
