Apparently 'Transport Canada' and Mayor of the municipality won't be able to intervene, owing to the decision of the Airport Owner and a Favourable action from them is not available till date.
Aspiring Pilots in the region and Canada are definitely devastated as they see one of the oldest gateway to Aviation is being shut , and it is a fact that, the airport has produced a lot of commercial airline pilots who are part of the Air Canada now.
