Canada's flight attendant union, CUPE's Airline Division, condemns Quebec’s Legault government's withdrawal of support for regional airlines in Quebec, leading to layoffs and closures at Pascan Aviation.

President Wesley Lesosky warns of increased community isolation and calls on Premier Legault to reverse the decision, emphasizing its negative impact on critical routes and quality jobs in Quebec.

Representing 18,500 flight attendants nationwide, CUPE stands in solidarity with Pascan employees. Lesosky criticizes the decision as short-sighted and urges Legault to reconsider promptly. The move jeopardizes connectivity and the livelihoods of aviation workers, prompting a plea for immediate government intervention.
