Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
There are a couple of thoughts that I've had. I'd like to speak to the folks at WestJet.
We do still travel some around this country and of course we use WestJet. I must say that when we go into our airports and when we're on your planes, we feel safe. That's an important aspect.
I really want to emphasize the Alberta pilot project for arrivals. This was something that was very critical and of course it got short-circuited with the announcement that there were going to be these quarantine hotels and that sort of thing. You had mentioned that perhaps the Prime Minister was looking at new initiatives but, quite frankly, that whole policy has caused some great consternation.
I'm wondering if you can tell the committee what the impact was. I know, earlier on, when the announcement was made that anybody outside of the country had to get a test 72 hours before they departed. They didn't know what test it was, and your people were expected to be the policemen in these other countries, and when they would arrive in Canada, if it wasn't the right test, there were serious concerns.
Could you talk about the impact? I know that there are laid-off staff and slashed routes because of these issues. What has been the impact? What do you see as a way forward? Of course, your industry has not been one that has caused a lot of issues.
