  • Award Presentation to Robert Deluce of Porter Airlines
    1 | P a g e Robert Deluce Award Presentation Wednesday May 17 – 3:30 P.M. – Bushplane Museum [AS PREPARED FOR DELIVERY] Good afternoon everyone, thank you for allowing me the opportunity to participate in today’s ceremony. We are here of course honouring Mr. Robert Deluce, CEO of Porter Airlines, for the positive contributions they have made to our community. This month marks the 5th anniversary since Porter service began in Sault Ste. Marie. In that time, our city’s business sector, tourism sector, and our residents at large have all benefited from having more choice and a greater availability of scheduled air service. The Economic Developers Council of Ontario is holding their spring symposium in Sault Ste. Marie this week and the theme is “Connecting the North to the South.” When you live and work here in the North, there are times when you feel removed from much of the rest of the province. It’s a separation born from geography, but it can be psychological as well. 2 | P a g e Having Porter service in the Sault has helped to bridge some of this physical and mental divide. Since 2011, it has been easier for many Sault residents to travel for health appointments, to school and for vacations. Business travellers have benefitted from convenient service right to downtown Toronto, or on to other major destinations such as Montreal, Chicago and New York. And likewise, being a Porter destination has certainly made Sault Ste. Marie a more reachable place for people in other cities who are considering travelling here—whether for business or pleasure.

  • Porter Airlines Opens Ontario's Muskoka Region to North
    NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Distribution Porter Airlines opens Ontario’s Muskoka region to North American travellers with summer service TORONTO / March 25, 2019 – Porter Airlines will be flying to Muskoka Airport with the introduction of 2019 summer service. Popular with outdoor enthusiasts, Muskoka has established itself among the world’s iconic summer retreats. Flights will have an air time of approximately 20 minutes, operating twice weekly on Thursdays and Mondays between Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport and Muskoka Airport, from June 27 to September 3. Connecting flights are available via Toronto for numerous Porter destinations in the U.S. and Canada. “Muskoka is an inspiring destination that attracts travellers from near and far,” said Robert Deluce, president and CEO of Porter Airlines. “This new route serves as a great opportunity to link Muskoka to our North American network.” Travellers can soak up stunning scenery, from picturesque historic towns and villages to iconic Algonquin Park, and the area’s famous waterways, including beautiful Georgian Bay. Muskoka offers a charming variety of amenities with golf courses, marinas, camps and cultural attractions spanning the region. “Explorers’ Edge is thrilled to be partnering with Porter Airlines to bring seasonal service to the Muskoka Airport this summer,” said James Murphy, executive director of Explorers’ Edge. “As the regional tourism organization for Muskoka, Parry Sound and Algonquin Park, it is our intent to leverage this service to increase international visitation across our entire region. Our thanks to the District of Muskoka representatives for their efforts to ready the airport, including working with Transport Canada and the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority.” “A new summer service between Toronto and Muskoka is great news for all Ontarians,” said Michael Tibollo, Minister of Tourism, Culture and Sport.

  • An Open Letter to the Prime Minister of Canada and All Premiers
    An Open Letter to the Prime Minister of Canada and all Premiers As a society, we have faced a threat like no other, COVID-19. And we are still dealing with it. Under the leadership of our governments, we agreed to implement tough decisions to protect our health and safety. We shut down our schools, our businesses, and our borders. We all made sacrifices and continue to adapt to this new reality. Now, it seems, we are getting through the worst of it. As we re-open, we are learning to live with the virus, not hide from it or from each other. And, just like we are re-opening the front doors of our homes and businesses, we need to re-open the doors of our provinces, territories – and our country. The Canadian travel, tourism and hospitality sector employs 1.8 million people and contributes $102 billion to our economy. It relies on the summer season to survive. As Canadians, we wait all year to travel during the summer. We need the summer. Like you, we believe personal safety is critical. However, many of the travel restrictions currently in place are simply too broad or unnecessary. Limitations on inter-provincial travel that restrict Canadians from freely exploring our country, should be removed. Canadians should be free to travel across Canada. We also need a more targeted approach to international travel. The mandatory 14-day quarantine and complete closure of our country to all visitors from abroad is no longer necessary and is out of step with other countries across the globe.

  • 1 October 25, 2007 Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal Robert
    1 October 25, 2007 Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal Robert Deluce President and CEO, Porter Airlines Remarks Porter Airlines: Taking off into a headwind [CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY] Thank you, Amadou, for your warm introduction. Ladies and gentlemen, it’s my pleasure to be with you this morning. I greatly appreciate this opportunity to address the Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal …the voice of commerce for one of Canada’s most important cities and a cornerstone Porter Airlines destination. As you heard earlier, just two days ago we celebrated the first anniversary of our inaugural flight to Ottawa. In a matter of a few weeks we’ll celebrate the first anniversary of the implementation of our Montreal service. It’s been an exhilarating first year and we couldn’t be more pleased about how much progress we have made in such a short time period. I am especially gratified by the role Porter has played in helping build further economic ties between Toronto and Montreal. The amount of trade in goods and services between Quebec and Ontario is close to $70 billion each year based on recent numbers. This is more than occurs between some smaller nations. Our geographic proximity encourages doing business face to face and, in so doing, strengthens the ties between Canada’s two major centers…and its two major cultures. I take pride in knowing Porter has done its part by making the relationship more convenient, enjoyable and productive. The Montreal-Toronto route is the second busiest by passenger volume in Canada. On any given weekday, there are at least 39 scheduled round-trip flights available between the two cities.

  • Turbulence in the Skies
    C.D. Howe Institute Commentary www.cdhowe.org No. 181, April 2003 ISSN 8001-824 Turbulence in the Skies: Options for Making Canadian Airline Travel More Attractive Fred Lazar In this issue... Should it matter to Canadian travelers and Canadians in general whether any Canadian airline survives to provide domestic service? The unequivocal answer is: You bet it matters! The Study in Brief This Commentary focuses on recommendations set out by the Canada Transportation Act Review Panel on permitting foreign entry into the domestic airline market and on the competitive landscape in passenger aviation services in Canada. The paper concentrates on the scope for new entry into the Canadian market, the likelihood that new entrants might, in fact, occur if the Canadian market is opened to foreign airlines and investors and the potential market impact if that did happen. If the federal government succeeds in negotiating a more liberal agreement with the United States, the Commentary argues that there would be limited entry at best — there are a very small number of markets in Canada that provide entry opportunities — and the entry might end up displacing Canadian companies in terms of the routes they operate and the number of frequencies they provide on existing routes. Even limited entry would weaken the financial performance of Westjet Airlines Ltd., though it might actually benefit Air Canada because it could use modified existing rights to maximize the benefits of its Toronto hub within a North American market. While I fully support the recommendations of the Review Panel, I believe that the competitive consequences for the domestic Canadian market of a bilateral agreement with the United States are likely to be minimal.
