Region of Waterloo International Airport - YKF

The US company holds a majority of the board seats. That's not very good for demonstrating that it's Canadian-controlled.

Whew, glad we avoided having cheap flights! It was a close call, but local consumers are safe now.

I like that we can have nuanced discussions here. For example, we can talk about how there are issues broader than just "lower price for consumers = good".

I'm not always in agreement with some of these issues, and I am not really sure that the Canadian ownership rules for airlines makes sense (frankly, I don't even really understand them), but certainly there's a discussion to be had there.

I mean, you wouldn't say the same thing if we scrapped environmental or consumer safety rules that also raise prices for consumers no?
