After more than 10 months of advocating on behalf of our members, we are disappointed that the federal government has yet to provide a substantive, labour-focused support package for the aviation industry, said ALPA Canada President Tim Perry. Their inaction means that jobs continue to be lost threatening, among other things, the industry’s future and Canada’s broader economic recovery. ALPA Canada’s position to the government on how to help the industry weather the storm... has remained consistent since the beginning of the pandemicwork with us and other aviation stakeholders to fully assess solutions that protect workers now and ensures a strong, stable aviation industry for all Canadians when travel demand resumes. To further illustrate the point, ALPA Canada’s new video encourages its members and their colleagues across the aviation sector to share it on all of their social media channels. https://bit.ly/3jWEcUu See more
