Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the federal government won’t intervene in a labour dispute between Air Canada and its pilots that could ground flights across the country as early as next week.
Speaking to reporters in the Montreal area on Friday, he said it was up to the union and airliner to reach a deal that would keep planes in the sky.
“I’m not going to put my thumb on the scale on either side. It is up to Air Canada and the pilots’ union to do the work to figure out how to make sure that they are not hurting millions of Canadians,” he said.
