Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Welcome, Parliamentary Secretary Gill, and thanks to our witnesses.
This is a very exciting topic. Coming from and representing the Kelowna—Lake Country in the Okanagan, we have YLW as your link to the world—our call letters. We have an international airport, the 10th busiest in Canada and growing by leaps and bounds. Globalization of air traffic for commerce is very important for all of our ridings. It is a big economic engine for our Okanagan Valley, so we appreciate the discussion and the study.
If we could, I want to clarify some of the semantics, the definitions, that are thrown around. There's “open sky”, “blue sky”. Is there some synonymous perspective on that? Before it used to be called “open sky agreements” and then it changed to “blue sky”. Does it mean the same thing? Could you maybe expand on and clarify that?
