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.

The requests for permits should be reveiwed on a case by case basis and should also expire within 6 months.
Yes, so long as private and public property laws and regulations are being followed.
@8XKRJ8N3yrs3Y
Yes, but it should be regulated/monitored.
@8WWXCH53yrs3Y
Instead of drones, it would be better to have people who are in dire need of a job, as this will benefit them.
@8VST53W4yrs4Y
Yes, as long as there are fair regulations for commercial and personal use (licences, laws, etc.)
@8T9RJZT4yrs4Y
As long as they don't interfere with personal privacy.
@8PYM7L44yrs4Y
they are unreliable at the moment and should not be funded by the government in its current state
@8C84VB55yrs5Y
Would need additional information such as pros and cons and privacy, security etc.
@9CD2S4W2yrs2Y
Yes, but not at the cost of the privacy of the surrounding citizens and homes.
@9C9F9K32yrs2Y
I believe that drones should be permitted if they are being used by businesses legally. However, if they are being used illegally I believe they should be banned
@98R7SDD2yrs2Y
Yes but only privately and with permits.
@97Y29T92yrs2Y
Regulate which type of drones, outlawing military and police grade drones.
