What do you mean the airports are not for profit? Wesjet confirmed it when they said the fees were among the highest in the world. The existing "profit" is transferred indirectly to the government through the high rents and Navcan fees. The writer must have never parked at Pearson- otherwise they would understand the ludicrous nature of the Wesjet official statement and challenge it by finding out the true amount of transfers to the government. If they were sold, the rent to the government disappears and voila- profit appears out of nowhere.
