Mr. Speaker, in the last week I have visited five provinces, flying on Canadian Airlines most of the way.
Surely it is important to this House that Canadian Airlines not only survives but that it is prosperous for the benefit of its workers, its investors and the travelling public.
We are all well aware that the Canadian government's balance sheet is worse than Canadian's, but one constructive thing the
federal government can do to help is to ensure that Canadian Airlines operates on a level playing field both at home and abroad.
Reform Party says no to government bailouts but we say no to federal government inaction.
My question is for the Deputy Prime Minister. What is this government doing to ensure a level playing field for Canadian Airlines International at home and abroad?
