THE AEROSPACE INDUSTRY: Helping drive B.C.'s economy
In 2010, Canada's aerospace sector generated over $24 billion and employed nearly 82,000 Canadians.

It is no surprise that Canada's aerospace industry has been selected by the National Research Council Canada as a key industry for their potential to contribute to Canada's economy.

15 YEARS OF DOING THINGS DIFFERENTLY: A WestJet Success Story
Gregg Saretsky, President and CEO, West Jet
WestJet began service in 1996 flying two old Boeing 737 200s to five cities in Western Canada. Fast forward to today where WestJet's fleet of 91 fuel efficient Boeing 737 Next Generation aircraft are flying to 71 destinations in 13 countries. In an industry that has collectively lost money since the days of the Wright Brothers, WestJet has not only survived, they've thrived. Today, WestJet is among the most profitable airlines in the world.
Having worked at four airlines across North America in his 25 year career in the aviation industry, WestJet President and CEO Gregg Saretsky is in a unique position to share how doing things differently can produce great results. Join Gregg as he shares some of WestJet's different approaches on technology, operations, its guests and most importantly its people and learn more about what WestJet has in store for Vancouver.
