Canada generally follows similar buffer strength requirements to the US,<ref name="rsaa">Such as the [[Railroad Safety Appliance Act]] of 1893.</ref> but new services are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. As a result, several types of lightweight DMUs have been used:

* The [[O-Train]] [[Trillium Line]] in [[Ottawa, Ontario]] uses European-standard [[Alstom Coradia LINT]] (previously [[Bombardier Talent]]) DMUs on conventional railway tracks under a specific safety agreement with [[Transport Canada]].{{Citation needed|date=July 2012}}
* [[Via Rail]] operates [[Budd Rail Diesel Car]]s on its [[Sudbury – White River train]].
* [[Charlevoix tourist train|Réseau Charlevoix]] ([[Le Massif]]) operates a shuttle in the [[Charlevoix]] region, Québec, using ex-[[Deutsche Bahn]] [[DB Class 628]] units.
* [[Canadian National]] operates the small custom-built [[Kaoham Shuttle]] between [[Lillooet, British Columbia|Lillooet]], and [[D'Arcy, British Columbia|D'Arcy]] via [[Seton Portage, British Columbia|Seton Portage]], {{convert|213|km|abbr=on}} northeast of [[Vancouver]], in a partnership with the [[Seton Lake Indian Band]].<ref name="tsalalh">{{Cite web|url=http://tsalalh.net/shuttle.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140728174758/http://tsalalh.net/shuttle.html|url-status=dead|title="Kaoham Shuttle" page, Seton Lake Indian Band website (Tsalalh.net)|archive-date=28 July 2014}}</ref>
