Transport committee  No, they pair with us. We work with easyJet and British Airways, for example; they tell us what their requirements are, and we do all the heavy lifting up front in recruiting, selecting, financing and getting the students. Then those two airlines guarantee those students a right

Transport committee  I gave you the example of our helping students find the financing. We have people whose job that is. When these people show up, we assess their ability and then we help them meet their financing. Then we work with the banks to provide the—

Transport committee  I'm not sure. The student gets a very high chance of getting a job. This model helps offset the demand that is drawing student pilots and other people from the north, for example. I think you need to create two different models, one that's servicing the airlines and then another

Transport committee  I think that if Air Canada were to recruit and train right from the get-go, that would be ideal. I'm not sure if they're prepared to do that. Another model would be to employ L3 Technologies or a company like CAE, which has the resources and infrastructure and would do the selec

Transport committee  I can speak only for L3 Technologies. We do not have schools in Canada, but we do offer major scholarships for women and for minorities in the United States and we have programs in Europe. L3 will sit down with the students, after they've been selected to show that they have the

Transport committee  I would agree with that. I think the cost eventually would be passed on to the customer with any kind of regulation. I do think the industry is trying to align itself to reduce its carbon footprint with new technologies. I would say that I think it's important that the business m

Transport committee  Good afternoon, Madam Chair and members of the committee. L3 Technologies develops defence technologies and advanced commercial solutions for pilot training and aviation safety. In this country, L3 Technologies currently employs more than 2,200 Canadians, and the company is cont
