Premier Graham Ready to Back up Provincial Airports













(Premier Graham Speaking Recently in Saint John)

If provincial airports require the new security scanners, than the Premier is willing to fight for them. Shawn Graham says the importance of trade to the United States is important, and is willing to go to bat for airports if the scanners are needed to stay competitive.


President of the Saint John Airport Bernie LeBlanc says it's a necessary tool to provide safe flights, and since security at the airport is regulated by Ottawa it will mean they supply the staff to operate it. The only airport in the region expected to get a scanner is Moncton.
