engfireleft, you mention that Canada has a healthy Airline industry? That HAS to be the funniest thing I have EVER read on this Forum! Are you completely insane?
Er...no. I did not say that. This is what I've said a couple of times now.
The truth is the government knows that a healthy airline industry in this country is worth a lot more to Canadians than cheap tickets to India via Dubai on an A-380. In fact it's critical to the nation's economy.
The government is taking steps in the interests of a healthy airline industry. That is not the same as saying the airline industry is healthy. Because it's not healthy, I wholeheartedly applaud the governments actions in support of that industry. I further applaud the government for not capitulating to disgraceful attempts at blackmail and extortion on the part of Dubai.
I believe you chastised me in an earlier post about reading comprehension.
