“We have signed deals to rent 10 more firefighting planes to help provinces and territories this year. All the planes come from Canadian companies to protect homes and save lives.”
“Mr. Speaker, that is exactly what we have delivered. Contracts are now in place to lease 10 additional wildfire aircraft that will support provinces and territories, starting this wildfire season. In line with our government’s buy Canadian policy, each of the companies leasing aircraft to CIFFC is a Canadian firm. This investment will protect lives, homes and communities for years to come.”
