MONTREAL, September 29 /CNW Telbec/ - Air Canada has the pleasure of announcing to its clientele and the media the recent adoption of a resolution aimed at re-evaluating certain aspects of its periodic collaboration with the federal authorities in the area of immigration. During the 2006 Annual General Share-holders Assembly held in Montreal on May 30th, Resolution 2.3.28, initially brought forward by staff representatives of company board members, was formulated and adopted.

The resolution aims, among its principal goals, to provide a concrete response to concerns expressed by our clients, to conform to guiding principles of international associations concerned with the regulation of air transportation, and to increase on-board security of Air Canada aircraft.

Robert Milton, Chairman, President and CEO of ACE Aviation Holdings Inc, stated during his 30 May 2006 remarks, « … it is an idea which has long been in motion among foreign companies, and which I have communicated to the highest levels of Transportation Canada and the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority; it addresses a problematic situation, whether we are talking flight safety, consumer confidence, or the simple logistics of flight reservations, check-in, and boarding.
