So adding MORE travelers, the anti-vax plague rats to the mix, isn't going to solve a staffing crisis by PRIVATE contractors and AIRLINES.

The situation with kids and schools is a crisis. Kids are incredibly behind largely due to covid theatre nonsense-especially the marginalized. I agree they need to get rid of all covid theatre, but people waiting longer for vacation is a big inconvenience, not a crisis.

So they layoff thousands and rehire hundreds and its the Feds fault, no more Airline subsides, how's Montreal making out

The travel industry needs to beat up on bad employers who can't seem to fill needed positions. It has ZERO to do with any restrictions. Do some actual research CTV. Shall I post all the NON GOV jobs that are choking Pearson from lack of staff?

Uh-huh. Tell us another one travel industry…

Justin likes having control over us. Even though he is incapable of controlling his own life.

Not ease, erase.

I fly private, don’t pay for tickets , gas and food and the most important I don’t stand in lines.. my flights are always on time and zero risk of missing my connection flights cause all my flights are straight. lift the discriminatory vaccine mandate NOW

'Eased'? Sorry but not enough , they need to remove all Covid restrictions and make a law to stop similar stupidity in the future. TrudeauIsDestroyingCanada

Meh! Divine irony,you complied with everything just so you could travel only to end up penned in like the obedient sheep that you are.

But when OmarAlghabra visited the airport today was empty?! Lol he just wants to take Canadians for fools typical liberals

Rich people problems ! Low wages and working conditions are poor for workers at airports. Rich people whining about the slaves not moving them along fast enough !

When your biggest airport collapses..It shows how well the government is doing.

Travel industry call for an END

Trudeau only cares about climate change and covid restrictions.

If staffing is problem how is easing restrictions helping unless what they are actually asking is for sick airport employees to come into workers

It has nothing to do with safety it is nothing but vindictive politics against anyone who doesn’t follow the liberal/NDP narrative they want control nothing else!

Thank goodness they fired all the dirty unvaxxed people!

Just when they ease restrictions they manufacture new crisis' and have a new thing to blame. Monkeypox cases are on the rise and here we are. Perpetual crisis events

just need to stop being greedy and start hiring more staff. Every where you look they are understaffed.

Our leaders don’t care. They have more loyalty to phizer than Canadians

All it took was a former hockey player to address it

Time for our vindictive PM to grow up.

That will definitely solve the problem as we will all get COVID and NOT be able to travel!!!
