SYDNEY, N.S. --
The tarmac at the J.A. Douglas McCurdy Sydney airport was empty Tuesday as its future remains very much up in the air.
But community members, along with the Cape Breton Partnership, are rallying in hopes flights will soon be taking off daily again.
"A number of organizations have been writing letters to various government stakeholders, but we wanted to make sure we had the opportunity to do more," said Cape Breton Partnership CEO Carla Arsenault.
Arsenault says a video will be launched later this week, outlining the impact on all corners of the community when Air Canada departs the airport for the final time on Jan. 11.
