Thank you.
I'd like to bring up the accommodation. In terms of the vaccination mandate, we went along with it. We are all working together.
At my conference last week, every operator—we represent all 40 operators in the north—has a real story to tell about workers sitting at home who once worked in the aviation business. The irony can't be lost. Some of these workers, just to find work, are now vaccine-exempted to work on flood or fire control. They now get to go back on board the same airplane they once fixed, but had to get laid off that job because they weren't vaccinated. They're still not vaccinated, but they can get on board the airplane to go fight a fire. This is the type of problem we need to solve.
This is also slowing things down. If we can't fix the airplane, if we can't service the airplane....
I was in Pearson this weekend, coming back from Yellowknife. The people getting off the airplanes were not wearing masks, to a degree. The Americans weren't wearing them at all. We need to get this under control.
Air Canada had a two-hour delay, because they couldn't find ground personnel. There are a lot of people out there.
