In Canada, there is no height restriction to hold a commercial pilot licence. Practically speaking, in order to fly an airplane, you have to be able to reach the pedals and see over the dashboard at the same time.

Check your minimum height requirements with the airlines!

In the US the rule is that you have to be tall enought to reach all controls and switches using the normal seat, rudder peddle, etc. adjustments. And the Feds. will help you take a company to court if it can be shown that they discriminate on the basis of such conditions; although companies still do try.
