CORRECTION: We want to respond to questions we’ve received about this video. The proposed plan involves opening the four airports to private investment, not selling the airports outright. It’s an issue that, we discovered, did not come across clearly in a short opinion video. Under a concession model, all airport operations (not only food and drink) would be run by for-profit companies instead of the non-profit airport authorities that oversee operations now. The federal will retain ownership of the underlying land and assets. Prime Minister Mark Carney’s plan to open up four major airports to private investment might change your experience flying in and out of Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver. But it doesn’t mean those airports will be privately owned. Globe business columnist Andrew Willis breaks down the big announcement from Tuesday’s Canada Investment Summit – and why he thinks it’s a good thing for passengers. #Canada #Airport #CdnPoli
