No, not currently.
Other carriers serve the Rouyn‑Noranda region, like Air Creebec, in Val d'Or. When it comes to Rouyn‑Noranda, the city, in Abitibi‑Témiscamingue, only Air Canada offers a daily return flight, in the middle of the day. It's the only carrier. That was the carrier I was referring to earlier.
As I just said, thanks to the program we created with other organizations, a link between Rouyn‑Noranda and Montreal is now available, Monday to Friday, morning and evening.
Small carriers have tried in the past, including our company. Some carriers tried launching services in cities like ours, in regions, but 90% of the time, a major carrier I won't name opted to offer the service at a rock-bottom price until the competition disappeared. That's what happens in a lot of regions.
That's why I said in my opening remarks that it would be good to have a joint program with governments to offset the losses associated with launching a new service. When a new service is launched, take-up hinges on people's developing a new habit, so they need to see the quality of the service being made available.
If we just had a program that helped new services launch and offset their losses, it would help us show people who need those services that regional carriers can provide quality service.
