Allowed

Allowed in both

According to CATSA guidelines, powder/granular toner cartridges in your carry-on are limited to a total quantity of 350 ml or less (roughly the size of a soda can). Liquid ink cartridges in a 100 ml (3.4 oz.) or smaller container are permitted in carry-on. Attention Certain powders and granular materials may require additional screening, and in some cases, the items may not be permitted. We recommend that permitted powders and granular materials that are not required during your flight be placed in checked baggage. Exemptions on baby food or formula, life-sustaining medication, and sacred or spiritual items may apply.
