Electronic Logging Devices

We are consulting with affected stakeholders on the use of Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) in Manitoba. The Federal government is mandating the use of ELDs for all federally regulated commercial vehicle operators starting in June 2021. Federally regulated carriers typically cross provincial borders.

Manitoba adopts the federal regulation for all provincially regulated carriers (intra-provincial), with an exemption for limited use vehicles under 6800 kilograms, farm vehicles, and several others.

We must decide how best to respond to the federal regulatory changes. In particular, how should we apply the federal regulation to carriers who operate only within Manitoba’s borders?

The Manitoba regulation must be updated to reflect the decision prior to June 2021.

We would like your input as we explore possible options and develop a plan for moving forward.
