I believe the best thing the government can do is maintain healthy market conditions. It's not that we don't want Air Canada in the regions; on the contrary. We have no problem with it, but we want Air Canada to do it without dumping.
A business with $18 billion in annual sales need only start a price war and the competition is gone just like that. That's been the problem for the last 30 years. Now we see a business opportunity with Air Canada having discontinued those routes.
Are we going to try to set up shop?
The question is, when it wants to take over those routes three or four years down the road, is Air Canada going to use predatory techniques to get rid of the competition?
It would be detrimental to all airlines on this side of the country.
