“The United States, for all its faults, is a very safe system, but where we are really falling behind is on the efficiency side of things.”
“Nav Canada doesn't depend on annual appropriations from legislators. It charges cost-based user fees to the aircraft that use the system.”
“The proof is in the pudding. What we've observed from Nav Canada, we've seen not only the maintenance of their high safety record, we've seen improvements in safety.”
