WELCOME TO ALPA, PASCAN AVIATION PILOTS!

On August 17, the Canada Industrial Relations Board (CIRB), certified ALPA as the new representative for Pascan Aviation pilots. The Pascan Aviation ALPA Organizing Committee filed cards on June 8, and ALPA was certified after the CIRB’s full review.


WELCOME ABOARD

You join more than 75,000 pilots at now 43 Canadian and U.S. airlines. Congratulations to you, and congratulations to the Pascan Aviation ALPA Organizing Committee. The committee worked very hard and ran an extremely positive campaign. And they certainly demonstrated that they are pro-Pascan, pro-pilot, and pro-ALPA!

The Pascan pilots proved it is indeed your time! And now “It’s Time” for all Pascan pilots to get to work and make your voices heard. Welcome aboard. - Captain Jason Ambrosi, ALPA President
