What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Prime Minister Mark Carney announced plans to invite private entities to purchase the operational rights for four major Canadian airports: Toronto's Pearson International Airport, Vancouver International Airport, Trudeau International Airport in Montreal, and Calgary International Airport. The federal government would retain ownership of the land at these four busiest airport sites. The proposals are part of a broader government initiative to allow private investment into aviation infrastructure across Canada.
