E-petition
Initiated by Gabor Lukacs from Halifax, Nova Scotia
Original language of petition: English
Petition to the Government of Canada
Whereas:
- Canada's air passenger protection regime continues to fall short of the standards set in other jurisdictions, such as the European Union;
- The Canadian Transportation Agency has a growing backlog of over 42,000 complaints from air passengers as of March 20, 2023;
- The Minister of Transport has acknowledged that Canada's Air Passenger Protection Regulations are not sufficiently protecting Canadian air passengers; and
- Bill C-327 was drafted in collaboration with leading consumer advocacy groups, addressing their major legislative recommendations to protect Canadian air passengers.
We, the undersigned, Residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to immediately introduce a government bill reflecting the entirety of Bill C-327, the Strengthening Air Passenger Protections Act, and prioritize its swift passage into law.
