My understanding is that since the pandemic, the recovery has been proceeding rather slowly. Some communities are doing better in the recovery than others, but I'm interested in whether Transport Canada even has a sense, looking at the past 10 years, if communities are seeing better connectivity in Canada, or are you working so hard on this because the trend is going in actually the opposite direction? Certainly, anecdotally, in the communities I represent, there are a lot of examples of communities that are seeing less service than they had 10 years ago.
In the community I live in, 10 years ago there were two airlines, each with two scheduled flights per day to Vancouver. Now there's one airline, and for parts of the year, there's only one scheduled flight per day to Vancouver. There's been a significant reduction in service. Other communities have seen the same thing. Overall, is the trend going in the wrong direction? Is that why Transport Canada is seized with this issue?
