Crude oil has returned to its long-term average. While markets stabilize, it's time to rethink directing tax dollars to airlines and refocus on the real fix: expensive taxes, fees and regulatory burden holding Canadian aviation back!

WestJet commends the federal government for its continued focus on strengthening the Canadian aviation sector, in particular noting the government’s stated commitment to driving affordability for Canada’s air travellers, as outlined in the Spring Economic Update: ms.spr.ly/6011vyD1Z This represents further positive steps forward, setting out measures that if implemented strategically and with appropriate governance, will better position the system to support a stronger and more competitive Canada. This comes at a critical time, as we are continuing to face significant global pressures, including the unprecedented rise in jet fuel costs and other challenges. These strategies are essential to building a more resilient and competitive sector that supports Canada’s economic growth. We encourage the government to move quickly and boldly to remove unique and costly red tape in the Canadian aviation ecosystem, driving toward a more competitive and affordable environment. We remain committed to working closely with the Government of Canada to advance practical solutions that align Canada with strong international best practices, improve affordability and enhance the air travel experience, toward building a more prosperous and connected Canada. WestJet félicite le gouvernement fédéral pour son engagement continu à renforcer le secteur de l’aviation canadienne, et souligne tout particulièrement la volonté exprimée par le gouvernement d’améliorer l’abordabilité du transport aérien pour les voyageurs canadiens, comme indiqué dans la Mise à jour économique du printemps: ms.spr.ly/6010vyD1k Il s’agit de nouvelles avancées positives qui, si elles sont mises en œuvre de façon stratégique et assorties d’une gouvernance appropriée, permettront de mieux positionner le système afin de soutenir un Canada plus fort et plus concurrentiel. Cette annonce survient à un moment critique, alors que nous continuons de faire face à d’importantes pressions mondiales, notamment la hausse sans précédent du prix du carburéacteur, ainsi que d’autres défis. Ces stratégies sont essentielles pour bâtir un secteur plus résilient et concurrentiel, capable de soutenir la croissance économique du Canada. Nous encourageons le gouvernement à agir rapidement et avec détermination afin d’éliminer les lourdeurs réglementaires uniques et coûteuses qui caractérisent l’écosystème de l’aviation canadienne, et ainsi favoriser un environnement plus concurrentiel et plus abordable. Nous demeurons engagés à travailler en étroite collaboration avec le gouvernement pour faire progresser des solutions concrètes qui harmonisent le cadre canadien avec les meilleures pratiques internationales, améliorent l’abordabilité et rehaussent l’expérience de voyage aérien, en vue de bâtir un Canada plus prospère et mieux connecté.
