Dear Minister Garneau,
Please see attached letter from the Regional Community Airports of Canada board chair, Brian Grant in support of the Canadian airport industry to bring awareness to the role Canada’s regional and community airports can play in providing essential opportunities within our communities to create employment as we all do our part in working together through these challenging times. Airports Capital Assistance Program – COVID-19 Employment Projects
The essential service and economic value of regional airports to their communities has never been more prevalent than in the recent weeks of this COVID-19 crisis. Our role in providing infrastructure and services for repatriation and essential transportation of people and goods is ensuring regions and their communities have the necessities to endure these circumstances.
The Regional Community Airports of Canada is a national organization dedicated to promoting the viability of regional and community airports within the air transportation system in Canada.
Sincerely,
Regional Community Airports of Canada
