Our Over arching Objectives
The Company will achieve its Mission by:

- Maintaining ANS customer service charges among the lowest of major ANSPs worldwide, and ensuring over the long term that the growth in operating costs does not exceed the growth in traffic;
- Providing value to our customers by contributing to improving their operational efficiency through the use of innovative technology and effective delivery of service, domestically and internationally;
- Having a work environment which places NAV CANADA amongst the best employers in Canada;
- Introducing measurable projects and initiatives which support a reduction of the environmental footprint of the aviation industry wherever feasible.

At NAV CANADA, we believe an inclusive culture with diverse people, talent and thoughts drives innovation, excellence and business results. We embrace the qualities and characteristics unique to each individual so each of our team members can contribute to our vibrant workplace and have a sense of belonging. The result: colleagues who are engaged and leading careers that leave ordinary behind.
"Learn About Our Senior Leaders Commitment to D&I.“NAV CANADA recognizes the importance of employing a workforce with the same rich diversity and inclusiveness as the communities and clients we serve across Canada.

A prime example of how we strive to meet our objectives is through innovations such as our investment in Aireon.
Aireon is providing the first fully global air traffic service (ATS) surveillance system using a space-based ADS-B receiver network hosted on the Iridium NEXT satellite constellation, and in 2019, NAV CANADA became the first ANSP to implement space-based ADS-B in its domestic airspace (Gander and Edmonton).
With Aireon's space-based ADS-B, full, continuous global air traffic coverage will now extend to the 70 per cent of the world's airspace (remote, polar and oceanic regions) that previously had no access to ATS surveillance information. This will;
- Provide shorter flight times for transcontinental flights and in the North Atlantic;
- Allow rescue coordination centres to obtain GPS location and tracking data for ADS-B equipped aircraft in an alert, distress phase or emergency situation.
Balancing the needs of a growing industry that is essential to our economy while ensuring growth does not harm the environment is a challenge we take seriously.

A company is defined by its commitment to initiatives including ones that reduce environmental impacts and contribute to community improvement. At NAV CANADA, we introduce measurable benefits which contribute to the reduction of the environmental footprint of the aviation industry. We do this by:
- Promoting energy conservation in our operations;
- Helping our aviation customers to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through initiatives that increase fuel efficiency;
- Supporting employee efforts to go green at home.
