Journal de Montreal reported the previous Liberal government saw the project as too risky

Quebec Premier Francois Legault responds to the opposition during question period Tuesday, February 4, 2020 at the legislature in Quebec City.Quebec Premier Francois Legault is dismissing naysayers who are accusing his government of wasting $30 million on a company that wants to build giant airships to transport heavy cargo around the province’s far north.

Airships disappeared from the skies in the 20th century for the same reason electric cars and windmills never took off during the same time period: fossil fuels. Jets took over the passenger airships, gas-powered vehicles dominated the roads, and coal-fired plants sprung up around the world, Prentice said.

Successive provincial governments have been trying to spark investment in Quebec’s north to take advantage of its massive natural resources. Fitzgibbon told reporters the French company’s project was more advanced than it was when presented to the Liberals, adding he expected the airships to start flying by 2022-23.“I don’t know if someone was inhaling helium … but just doesn’t make any sense,” said Quebec solidaire’s Vincent Marissal.
