As we said from the moment this idea was first floated: privatizing our airports benefits no one but corporations out to make a profit.

Privatizing Canadian airports risks trading away long-term public assets for a short-term cash infusion tied to a debt-backed sovereign wealth fund. By @peggynash.bsky.social #cdnpoli edmontonsbusiness.ca/business/pri...

Privatization is not nation building
Trading a reliable public asset for a one-time cash infusion is a raw deal for Canadians

If I wanted to privatize airports to fund millionnaire and billionaire oil and gas projects so they would get even more profits I would’ve voted conservative, not liberal Liberal voters didn’t vote Liberal to private size airports to subsidize oil and gas. That’s what cpc voters want. #cdnpoli

The government should be protecting our public airports, not selling them off for parts. History is littered with examples of the failures of privatization. It drives up costs for the public, quality suffers, and workers always end up paying the price.

If Canadians, travelling domestically, want to use the "good" security line at the airport, they need a NEXUS card, even if they aren't going to the US. And they need the blessing of Donald Trump's Homeland Security apparatus to get one. I'm calling on Canada to end this absurdity. #Canada #NEXUS
