Transport committee  Good afternoon, and thank you. My name is David Chartrand, Quebec coordinator for the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers in Canada. As my colleague said earlier, we have serious concerns with the introduction of Bill C-10. In particular, clause 2 expl

Transport committee  I would like to answer that. On a number of occasions, since the minute the Liberal government was elected, we have sent letters and started trying to communicate with Minister Garneau, and we also sent 90 letters to different MPs explaining to them that it was important for us

Transport committee  In my mind, any company that could obtain a contract with Air Canada would not be seen very well coming here and talking against what Air Canada wants to do.

It was said here today that there are no signatures. It was said that there is a possibility of 1,300 jobs. For me, I have an issue with the possi

Transport committee  I agree completely with Mr. Cadieux, but you are asking us why a restriction would be imposed on Air Canada, which is trying to compete with companies like WestJet. I wonder about something. At present, the government is delaying giving assistance to Bombardier, which is a priva

Transport committee  I can tell you right now about the province of Quebec. I can't speak for the whole country, but I know the two witnesses yesterday told you that there was a bunch of people who are being trained out west. I can tell you there are about 600 people right now in schools hoping to ge
