Madam Speaker, I recognize that the air passenger bill of rights is a key part of the legislation, as highlighted in a tweet that the minister put out on Twitter when he introduced the bill.
In the legislation, the Minister of Transport is being given the authority to set the compensation rates for the air passenger bill of rights. How much does the minister think is an appropriate penalty for a delayed flight? Why is this amount not included in the legislation? Why is the Minister of Transport the only person the Canadian Transportation Agency should consult before setting the compensation regime the government envisions?
