Protecting Canada’s Tourism Economy During Aviation Labour Disruptions
TIABC has submitted recommendations to the Government of Canada as part of its consultation on potential changes to the Canada Labour Code. While supporting fair collective bargaining, TIABC emphasizes that aviation labour disruptions can have significant impacts on tourism businesses, workers, visitors, and communities across Canada.
The submission recommends retaining the existing provisions of the Canada Labour Code while exploring measures such as earlier mediation to reduce the risk of widespread service disruptions. Reliable air access is essential to Canada's tourism economy and the businesses and communities that depend on it.
