I see that we{Canada} are included in the list of those who must sign on to this new Lic, it may be worth pondering tha t when it comes to regulating safety we recently had a PM who registered his single hull tanker rustbuckets under a "Flag of covienience" and we are the refueling destination of choice for every clapped out, crew fatigued aircraft that can stagger across the pond.Further to this the "Nodding Donkeys "in Transport Canada consist largly of those who have been booted out of the industry for various sins, one only has to read our TSB reports on their gear up landings to see that TC is not staffed by the cream of the crop, so Canadas input to this process will consist of going along with the crowd in the interest of job security and indexed pensions!
