There is no doubt that the aviation sector will continue to contribute significantly to the fabric of our nation, connecting Canadians to each other and the world, and fuelling our economy. At the same time, we must recognize that industry forecasts indicate that a return to 2019 air traffic levels will likely take several years to achieve.
Industry and government must work in lockstep now more than ever to take action on future risks and to drive solutions to the current public health and financial crises. In this context, Nav Canada appreciates the opportunity to be a part of the dialogue as this committee undertakes its study on the impacts of COVID-19 on the transportation sector.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I welcome questions from members of the committee.
