The Alberta government is pledging more than $73 million toward the province's aviation and aerospace industry – a move it says will foster growth and make Calgary a hub for travel.

Part of the money – approximately $8 million – will be given to Calgary's Mount Royal University to support its pilot training program.Another $15 million over three years will be put toward a "labour market training program" to offset the costs of training new pilots.

In return, Calgary-based WestJet said it would increase its fleet at the Calgary International Airport from 60 airplanes to 100.Premier Jason Kenney called Wednesday's announcement a "game-changer" for Alberta. "By choosing Calgary as its single global hub, locating its entire Dreamliner fleet here and increasing its annual seat capacity by 80 per cent, WestJet will massively improve global connectivity, tourism and options for passengers."

Money to train pilots, but no money to train the engineers that maintain them. Finding AME’s let alone good AME’s is exceptionally difficult now. Would’ve been nice to hear something about that.

Hey jkenney so now you’re subsidizing airlines for training their staff. Wasn’t your $4.7 billion corporate tax cut suppossed to create those jobs? Oh right, the tax cut created ZERO jobs, only ⬆️CEO bonuses, ⬆️dividends, ⬆️share buybacks… ableg abpoli NeverVoteConservative
