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, but we should have strict privacy regulations/security. Eg. No videoing/strict passwords for data about adresses & personal information.
@9FKQZWZ2yrs2Y
It really depends on what kind of use it's used for.
@8ZM4Q6D3yrs3Y
To an extent, but people need job positions and drones could make people lose important jobs.
Licences should be more regulated
@8VX2X274yrs4Y
Yes, but there should be boundaries in place
@8VTSW2H4yrs4Y
Depends on the nature of the use
@8VSDKLT4yrs4Y
What kind of commercial services?
@8VQ37K54yrs4Y
Depends on the use/circumstance. This question is too open-ended that, for 90% of people, this question is a waste of time.
@8VHSMJQ4yrs4Y
I’d have to know more about how they’d be used…. I am concerned about privacy as well as the impact on wildlife
@8VFBJXW4yrs4Y
Yes, but only if there are very clear regulations and policies in place
@8VCNMXY4yrs4Y
It depends on the degree of uses. Example: are they being used to spy on or destroy competitors in their fields.
@8SCVY6T4yrs4Y
Shouldn’t be up to the government, government powers should be drastically reduced. Death to Trudeau and his family
@8MT5KGD4yrs4Y
we should become the drones ❤️
@8VVB8DW4yrs4Y
If they can do a back flip
@3FCHJ744yrs4Y
Yes, but every drone must be registered and its activity back logged incase of being used for criminal use.
@2D4W3ZK4yrs4Y
i think there should be boundaries put in place when it comes to using drones in urban areas.
