Organizers blame regulator after women in aviation event cancelled at last minute
“My volunteers are in tears. We have so many messages on social media and phone calls, people looking for answers,” organizer Kristen Brazier told Global News.“All of these businesses have committed hundreds of thousands of dollars of resources, including helicopters to have this event and Transport Canada has been giving us crickets.”
Brazier said organizers submitted their application for the event in July, but that Transport Canada has been moving goalposts since then. The last-minute notification, Brazier said, meant they had to pull the plug just hours before military aircraft from 12 U.S. states were set to fly to B.C.
