The federal transportation regulator has determined that Edmonton-based Flair Airlines may be in violation of the law that requires it to be controlled by Canadians.
The CTA said a panel of its members found Flair “may not be controlled in fact by Canadians and may, therefore, not be ‘Canadian,’ as defined in the Canada Transportation Act.” Flair is 25-per-cent owned by Miami-based investment firm 777 Partners, which was founded in 2015 by Steven Pasko and Joshua Craig Wander, the airline has told The Globe. In November, Flair said it was 58-per-cent owned by Canadians. Its five-person board of directors incudes three Americans who either own part of 777 Partners or are employed by 777 Partners, according to incorporation filings in British Columbia. Questions sent to a spokesperson for 777 Partners were not answered.
The airline said it needs more time to address the CTA’s objections to the involvement of 777 Partners, which it said offered stability when no other financial backing was available.
