Abstract
The need for motor vehicle noise regulation is briefly reviewed and the provisions of current Canadian federal standards are outlined. An assessment of the effectiveness of current regulations is made in general terms and possible future regulatory actions are discussed. The need for co-ordination of federal regulation of the new vehicle and provincial or municipal regulation of the vehicle in use is emphasized with particular reference to the importance of voluntary standardization in the current situation in Canada.
