Canada's shipping refuge room testament free a final report on its investigation into the loss of the Titan submersible on Wednesday. It will be almost three years to the day since the vessel imploded off Newfoundland and Labrador, killing five people, while on a dive to view the ruins of the Titanic.
The submersible was owned and operated by OceanGate. CEO Stockton Rush was one of the people who died in the disaster, along with British adventurer Hamish Harding, Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood, his 19-year-old son, Sulema, and French submariner Paul-Henri Nargeolet.
A TSB notice stated there are six recommendations in the report. TSB recommendations are generally aimed at reducing or eliminating safety deficiencies that pose risks to the transportation system in Canada.
The notice states both regulators and industry will need to be part of the follow-up.

U.S. NTSB blames faulty engineering for implosion of Titan submersible
The TSB report is scheduled to be released at 11:30 a.m. NT.
The agency does not assign fault in its investigations and does not typically speak to any potential civil or criminal liability.
The Titan disaster received international media attention, extending long after the event itself. Multiple documentaries were made about the incident, including Titan: The OceanGate Submersible Disaster, released on Netflix in June 2025. The productions all speak to the physical pressure the sub was under, as it closed in on depths of 3,800 metres below sea level, ultimately crushing the vessel.
The disaster was the subject of a separate investigation by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board, also released last year. That investigation found there was faulty engineering in the creation of the submersible and found OceanGate hadn't properly tested the submersible.
