The Government of Nunavut has decided not to exercise its equity option for a minority interest in Canadian North. The government determined that its objectives of supporting reliable, affordable, transparent, and sustainable air services for Nunavummiut can be achieved without an equity investment. Exchange Income Corporation (EIC) will continue to work closely with the government through its valued partnership and Commercial Airline Travel Services Agreement.

EIC stated that the Government of Nunavut’s conclusion speaks to the trust placed in the corporation to deliver essential services to constituents. Canadian North has been a critical addition to EIC’s northern aviation operations, and the company is pleased with its performance to date. EIC remains the preeminent supplier of airline services in the North.

The corporation is committed to collaborating with the government to assess where future investment and attention are required to support long-term service stability. This includes meeting the expected increase in demand resulting from the Canadian Government’s commitment to Canada’s sovereignty and security in the North.
