Airport Authority chair Norm MacFarlane tells CHSJ News Air Canada was being taken for granted because it was felt the airline would always be here but, in this day and age, that doesn't necessarily have to be the case. He points out Air Canada flies in and out of 3 airports in a province which has a population of under 800 thousand.
Consultants concluded Air Canada is the airport's best bet for future sustainability.
The Airport Authority would like to see Air Canada add flights to Toronto, Halifax and St. John's.
