"Although the European Union and Canada have long-standing economic and political ties, prior to the current Agreement, aviation was the subject of bilateral agreements with a number of the Member States. It is therefore necessary to pursue the objective of establishing an Open Aviation Area that clears the way for the creation of a single market for air transport, in which investments would flow freely and both parties’ airlines would be able to provide air services without any restrictions. We think that existing legal restrictions on ownership of Canadian airlines should be removed and, at the same time, new traffic rights and cooperation on a range of issues – including passenger safety, respect for the environment, air traffic management and security – ought to be introduced. We can therefore surely say that the Agreement adopted today is truly ambitious. It will bring about a decisive improvement in connections between the respective markets and will create new opportunities for the sector. However, we do recommend increased consultation and cooperation on the delicate issue of security and we call on the Commission to keep Parliament informed of all developments and to watch over the work of the new Joint Committee."@en1
