Bottleneck in Canadian ELD registry leads to soft enforcement period for mandate After months of speculation about just what Canadian regulators would do with respect to the June 12, 2021, enforcement date for Canada's version of the electronic logging device mandate, Transport Minister Omar Alghabra today announced an intent to work with industry and others on details of a "progressive enforcement period" to begin with "education and awareness" exclusively. Alghabra, however, did emphasize the need for as much as speed as is possible for carrier implementation. That's wholly dependent on Canada's ELD registry of third-party certified devices, which continue to feature not a single device, with the deadline little more than three months away.
